New leaflet on education indicators

The Education Department has produced a leaflet, with English and Chinese versions, on education indicators which assess various aspects of the performance of the Hong Kong school education system.

Entitled "How much do you know about education in Hong Kong?", the leaflet carries graphs of 11 education indicators. Together, they provide a systematic indication of the well-being of the Hong Kong school education system, charting performances over ten or more years.

The indicators are selected from a report compiled by the Education Department in August 1995.

Some of the education indicators are:

literacy rate

general education attainment

percentage of trained teachers serving in schools

proportion of school-age children enrolled in schools

E

Government expenditure per school pupil per year

Government expenditure on education as a percentage of GDP

average class size in primary and secondary schools

Pupil-teacher ratio

The leaflet is now available to members of the public at district offices and district education offices.
