SOURCES: Education expenditure refers to the current operating expenditures in education, including wages and salaries and excluding capital investments in buildings and equipment.; Duration of compulsory education is the number of grades (or years) that a child must legally be enrolled in school.; Duration of primary education is the number of grades (or years) in primary education.; Duration of secondary education is the number of grades (or years) in general secondary education.; This entry includes a definition of literacy and Census Bureau percentages for the total population, males, and females. There are no universal definitions and standards of literacy. Unless otherwise specified, all rates are based on the most common definition - the ability to read and write at a specified age. Detailing the standards that individual countries use to assess the ability to read and write is beyond the scope of our source. Information on literacy, while not a perfect measure of educational results, is probably the most easily available and valid for international comparisons.
