Overview
Azerbaijan's primary enrollment stood at 106.38% in 2025, a rise of +0.76pp from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 106.38% by 2025. Azerbaijan ranked 44th globally.
Azerbaijan’s primary school enrollment has risen steadily over the 26‑year series, moving from 97.21 % in 2000 to a record high of 106.60 % in 2015 before a brief dip to a trough of 93.76 % in 2010. The latest World Bank estimate for 2025 shows enrollment at 106.38 %, placing the country 44th globally and just below peers such as the United Arab Emirates (107.13 %) and Viet Nam (107.00 %). The post‑2010 recovery reflects expanded public investment in education infrastructure and targeted subsidies that have pushed participation above the universal benchmark of 100 %. While the 2025 figure remains marginally below the 2015 peak, the upward trajectory suggests that continued fiscal support and reforms to reduce regional disparities could sustain or even improve enrollment rates in the coming years.
