Myanmar Population and Housing Census: Report on Education (2014)

This report presents the findings on Education, through information collected from three questions in the Census on literacy, school attendance, and educational attainment. The progress of any country is heavily dependent on its education system. Education has to reach all groups within society and has to be of a high quality to be able to meet the demands of an expanding labour market. At a critical time in the development of the education system in Myanmar, the information presented in this report will assist the Government in its effort towards meeting the Sustainable Development Goal of ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education and the promotion of lifelong learning opportunities for all.
