Luxembourg's Edustat portal reports 118,025 pupils attending schools in 2025/26. The same current dataset separates national and international programmes and reports 12,531 teachers in public education in 2025. Luxembourg's current dashboard gives a clear system-wide pupil total and then separates national programme counts from international provision.

How the education pathway works
The stage map reflects the country's fundamental and secondary structure while acknowledging that international programmes sit alongside the national curriculum.
| Stage | When | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Early and primary education | Fundamental cycle | Fundamental education includes the early and primary cycles. |
| Classical secondary | Secondary route | Classical secondary education is one national secondary pathway. |
| General secondary | Secondary route | General secondary includes several study and vocational options. |
| International programmes | Additional offer | Public and private international curricula operate alongside the national programme. |
Key evidence
The 118,025 total includes the full school population, while 55,175 and 41,152 are two national-programme components rather than independent national totals.

How to read the Luxembourg evidence
The teacher figure is a 2025 public-sector staffing count and is not directly comparable with the all-school pupil total without adjusting institutional coverage.
The page avoids calculating a pupil-teacher ratio from those mismatched scopes.

Methodology: Luxembourg pupil totals retain the Edustat programme categories; the public-teacher count is kept separate because its institutional coverage differs.
