School Life Expectancy by Gender Annual
Description
Ministry of Education annual school life expectancy for Singapore residents by gender from 2000 through 2020—the expected years of enrolment from age six given current rates, excluding pre-school and, from 2005, including private institutions. Education researchers compare schooling duration trends for citizens and permanent residents.
Official description
School Life Expectancy is the number of years of education that a 6 year old child can expect to enrol in over his/her lifetime, given the current enrolment rates. It is calculated by taking the sum of enrolment rates across each single year of age starting at age six. Notes: 1) Figures refer to resident population, i.e. Singapore citizens and permanent residents and exclude enrolment in pre-school. 2) Figures from 2005 include private educational institutions.
