What this measures

Share of children aged 3 to 5 years older than the official age for the last grade of primary school who have completed primary education, mostly measured in household surveys (SDG indicator 4.1.2).

Survey years differ between countries; check the year shown for each value.
This survey-based rate differs from the World Bank's primary completion rate, which compares new entrants to the last grade with the population of that age.
