The latest data from the World Bank indicates that Serbia's secondary enrollment rate stands at 89.05%, positioning it at the 106th spot globally. Notably, the country's all-time peak in secondary enrollment occurred in 2015, reaching an impressive 96.67%, surpassing many of its peer countries, including Mauritius, which had a rate of 90.03% in the same year.
