The total net enrolment rate should be based on total enrolment of the official relevant school age group in any level of education for all types of schools and education institutions, including public, private and all other institutions that provide organized educational programmes.

The UIS sets standards, develops questionnaires and quality control protocols for country data reporting, and maintains the global database on the structure of education, and enrolment data by age. The United Nations Population Division (UNPD) produces and maintains population data. National population data that comply with UIS quality standards can also be used.

Interpretations

The total net enrolment rate is the complementary to 100% of the corresponding out-of-school rate. Hence, the lower the total net enrolment rate, the higher the equivalent rate of out-of-school, and the greater the need to focus on improving access to education.

Limitations

As other net rates, the total net enrolment rate is affected by the use of different reference points for age for enrolment and population data.
