School enrollment, primary (% gross) SE.PRM.ENRR
Grenada's primary enrollment was 105.95% in 2025, ranked 45th globally. This represents a 4.2% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1971–2025.
Overview
Grenada's primary enrollment stood at 105.95% in 2025, a decline of +4.64pp from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 105.95% by 2025. Grenada ranked 45th globally.
Grenada’s primary school enrollment rate has fallen dramatically from its all‑time peak of 139.16 % in 1971 to a trough of 94.54 % in 2000, before climbing back to 105.95 % in 2025, placing the nation 45th globally. The 2025 figure exceeds the 2000 low by 11.41 percentage points but remains well below the 1970s high, indicating that while universal primary attendance has been largely restored, the system has not yet recaptured the over‑enrollment levels that once reflected high repetition or late entry. Compared with peers of similar rank, Grenada’s rate is marginally lower than Azerbaijan’s 106.38 % and slightly above Aruba’s 105.72 %, suggesting a competitive but not leading position in the region. The 48‑year coverage shows a long‑term upward trajectory after the early‑2000s dip, and continued investment in early childhood preparation and retention programs could push the enrollment rate above the 110 % threshold in the coming decade.
