According to OECD statistics, 17.4 percent of Australians are at a high rate of literacy, 55.2 percent have a moderate level of literacy, and 44.8 are at a low literacy level. Almost 50 percent of Australian women are at least a moderate literacy level, while the moderate literacy rate for men is 52.2 percent. The overall literacy rate in Australia is pegged at 100 percent, as is the literacy rate for men and women. The literacy rate is defined as the number of people aged 15 and over who can read and write. |

In response to ashley: The literacy rate for Australia is 100%. Literacy, however, is really a continuum from illiterate through low literacy to high literacy. The International Adult literacy survey (1998) of OECD countries concluded that 44.8% of Australian adults had a low level of literacy. In this study, a low level of literacy represents a skill level lower than that required for successful completion of secondary education. These people may have difficulty comparing data, understanding data which is not clearly laid out and following complex instructions. Low literacy can affect the training and employment options available to the person, their financial status and their ability to access services such as health and welfare assistance. |

In response to everyone looking for 'amazing' facts on Australia, try the country's rankings, top as well as bottom global rankings, and then try correlations. |
