| Summary: | A common vision and a consistent effort
on the part of Chilean governments from the late 1960s to
the present have placed Chile at an advanced stage of
educational development. Today, primary education is almost
universal, net secondary coverage is at 75 percent and more
than one third of the 18- 24 age-cohort is enrolled in
tertiary education. In addition, Chile features many
components of a modern educational system, including a full
school day, use of private providers, a competency-based
curriculum, assessment of learning outcomes and a strong
material basis for learning. |
