What each country actually reports
Pick a theme to see who publishes it, and how they word it
There is no single education statistic every country publishes, so nothing here is ranked. Figures appear exactly as the national authority reports them, which is why one country counts "pre-university students" and another counts "general education pupils". Comparing them directly would mean comparing different things.

About these figures
Education figures come from each country's own ministry or statistics office and are shown in their original wording and units, with the reporting year on the country page. Themes above group similar measures for browsing; they do not make the underlying figures comparable, and 14 countries report figures that fall outside every theme.
