Ukraine Secondary Enrollment
School enrollment, secondary (% gross) SE.SEC.ENRR
Ukraine's secondary enrollment was 84.65% in 2021, ranked 108th globally. This represents a 0.3% increase from 2020. Data from World Bank, covering 2000–2021.
Overview
Ukraine's secondary enrollment stood at 84.65% in 2021, a rise of +0.22pp from 2020. Ukraine ranked 108th globally.
Ukraine’s secondary school enrollment fell from a historic high of 101.25 % in 2003 to a low of 84.43 % in 2020, before registering 84.65 % in 2021, which places the country at 108th in the world. The decline reflects a long‑term contraction in the secondary‑age population and disruptions linked to political instability, with the most recent figure virtually identical to Thailand’s 84.66 % and marginally above North Macedonia’s 84.16 % for the same year. Over the 22‑year series, enrollment has dropped by more than 16 percentage points, signalling a persistent erosion of access despite modest recent stabilization. The 2021 level remains well below the early‑2000s peak, suggesting that without targeted policies to expand school capacity, improve retention and address demographic shifts, the downward trajectory is likely to continue.
