FOREWORD
This is the twenty eighth issue of a yearly publication on education statistics prepared
by Statistics Mauritius.
Tables presented in this report relate to the Republic of Mauritius and cover latest
available information on pre-primary, primary, secondary, technical and vocational,
tertiary as well as education in specialised institutions.
The data have been compiled on the basis of information collected through surveys
conducted in 2011 among educational institutions, as well as from the Mauritius
Examinations Syndicate and the Tertiary Education Commission.
It is hoped that the data assembled in this report will be of valuable help to the public
in general, particularly to education planners and policy makers. The preparation of
this report has necessitated the collaboration of the Ministry of Education and Human
Resources, the Central Information Systems Division, educational institutions, and
several other organisations. Their co-operation and assistance are herewith gratefully
acknowledged.

Definitions of indicators
(1) Apparent Intake Rate
Number of new entrants in Standard I in primary schools as a percentage of the population aged 5
years.
(2) Gender Parity Index (GPI)
Ratio of the GER for female to the GER for male. It measures the relative education participation of
boys and girls. A GPI of 1 reflects equal enrolment rate for boys and girls, whereas a GPI greater
than 1 shows disparity in favour of girls.
(3) Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER)
Number of pupils enrolled in a given level of education, regardless of age, expressed as a
percentage of the population in the relevant age-group:
- 4 - 5 years for pre-primary - 6 – 11 years for primary - 12 – 19 years for secondary - 20 – 24 years for tertiary.
(4) Net Enrolment Ratio (NER) for pre-primary
Number of pupils aged 4 to 5 years enrolled in pre-primary schools, expressed as a percentage of
the population in the same age-group.
(5) Net Enrolment Ratio (NER) for primary
Number of pupils aged 6 to 11 years enrolled in primary schools, expressed as a percentage of the
population in the same age-group.
(6) Net Enrolment Ratio (NER) for secondary
Number of pupils aged 12 to 19 years enrolled in secondary schools, expressed as a percentage of
the population in the same age-group.
‐ 10 ‐
(7) Pupil/ Teacher Ratio The average number of pupils per teacher at a given level of education in a given year. (8) Primary Completion Rate The ratio of the number of students successfully completing the last year of primary school
(Standard VI) in a given year to the total number of children aged 11 years in the population.
(9) Transition Rate The proportion of pupils progressing from the primary cycle (i.e Std VI) to the secondary cycle
(Form I and Year I Prevoc), expressed as a percentage of the number of pupils enrolled at Std VI in
primary school.
(10) Promotion Rate The proportion of pupils who successfully completed a grade and proceeded to the next higher
grade the following year, expressed as a percentage.
(11) Repetition Rate The proportion of pupils who repeat a grade once or twice. (12) Dropout Rate The proportion of pupils who leave the system without completing a given grade in a given school
year. This rate shows the extent at which pupils abandon schooling.
A pupil at a given level of education in a given year will, in the following year, either get promoted
to the next higher grade, or repeat the same grade or drop out of the school system.
Therefore, Promotion Rate + Repetition Rate + Dropout Rate = 100
