Education in Guinea
DATASource-led profile
Source-led profile 路 Reference years shown
UNESCO UIS models Guinea's 2023 out-of-school rates at 19% for primary, 46% for lower secondary and 64% for upper secondary. These are modelled estimates, not administrative enrolment counts. The three out-of-school percentages are UIS modelled estimates for 2023, not administrative counts. The figures below are sourced from the authoritative references listed on this page.
Guinea education snapshot
Guinea's profile is most informative when the method is treated as part of the number, because UIS publishes administrative, survey and modelled out-of-school series separately.
Primary out of school
19%
Lower secondary out of school
46%
Upper secondary out of school
64%
Data method
Modelled
* Reference years and benchmark labels are shown with the figures.
How the education pathway works
The stage map mirrors the three education levels for which the displayed out-of-school rates are reported.
| Stage | When | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-primary education | Before primary | Pre-primary provision precedes primary education. |
| Primary education | School stage | UIS reports out-of-school measures separately for the primary level. |
| Lower and upper secondary | Secondary | Lower and upper secondary are separate stages and have separate out-of-school estimates. |
| Tertiary education | After school | Tertiary education follows the secondary pathway. |
Key evidence
The 2023 values shown here are from the modelled rows of the UIS profile, not the administrative rows, which have gaps in the latest years.
| Indicator or rule | Value | Reference | Authority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary out of school | 19% | 2023 | Modelled estimate |
| Lower secondary out of school | 46% | 2023 | Modelled estimate |
| Upper secondary out of school | 64% | 2023 | Modelled estimate |
| Data method | Modelled | UIS | Distinct from administrative and survey series |

Reading the Guinea evidence
The increasing rate from primary to upper secondary describes the modelled share out of school at each level; it is not a progression rate for the same cohort.
The page does not substitute older administrative values simply because they exist, since that would mix methods and reference years.
Frequently asked questions
What is Guinea's modelled primary out-of-school rate for 2023?
UIS reports 19%.
What is the modelled lower-secondary rate?
UIS reports 46% for 2023.
What is the modelled upper-secondary rate?
UIS reports 64% for 2023.
Are these administrative data?
No. The 19%, 46% and 64% values are the modelled series in the UIS profile.
Sources and methodology
The country-specific UIS PDF is the direct evidence for all three percentages.
Methodology: Guinea's displayed out-of-school rates are explicitly the UIS modelled 2023 series and are not relabelled as administrative data.
