Education in Guinea-Bissau
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Education in Guinea-Bissau is compulsory from the age of 7 to 13.[1] In 1998, the gross primary enrollment rate was 53.5 percent, with higher enrollment ratio for males (67.7 percent) compared to females (40 percent).[1] As of 2001, Guinea-Bissau was continuing to recover from the civil conflict of 1999, which displaced one-third of the population, destroyed many schools, and prevented most young children from attending school for at least half a year.[1]
