Education for All 2000-2015: Achievements and Challenges

The 2015 Global Monitoring Report – Education for All 2000-2015: Achievements and Challenges – provides a complete assessment of progress since 2000 towards the target date for reaching the Dakar Framework’s goals.

It takes stock of whether the world achieved the EFA goals and stakeholders upheld their commitments. It explains possible determinants of the pace of progress.

Finally, it identifies key lessons for shaping the post-2015 global education agenda.

Main findings:

- Just one-third of countries have achieved all the measurable Education for All (EFA) goals.
- In 2012, 121m children and adolescents were still out of school, down from 204m in 1999.
- Half of countries have now achieved Universal Primary Enrolment and 10% more are close.
- Poorest children are five times more likely not to complete primary school than richest.
