    Description

    This domain covers statistics and indicators on key aspects of the education systems across Europe. The data show entrants and enrolments in education levels, education personnel and the cost and type of resources dedicated to education.

    For a general technical description of the UOE Data Collection see UNESCO OECD Eurostat (UOE) joint data collection – methodology - Statistics Explained (europa.eu).

    The standards on international statistics on education and training systems are set by the three international organisations jointly administering the annual UOE data collection:

    • The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation Institute for Statistics (UNESCO-UIS),
    • The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and,
    • The Statistical Office of the European Union (EUROSTAT).

    The following topics are covered:

    • Pupils and students – Enrolments and Entrants,
    • Learning mobility,
    • Education personnel,
    • Education finance,
    • Graduates,
    • Language learning.

    Data on enrolments in education are disseminated in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Sex,
    • Age or age group,
    • NUTS1 and NUTS2 regions,
    • Type of educational institution (public or private) – referred to as the ‘sector’ in Eurobase,
    • Intensity of participation (full-time, part-time, full-time equivalent) – referred to as ‘working time’ in Eurobase,
    • Programme orientation (general/academic or vocational/professional),
    • Type of vocational programme (school-based only or combined school and work-based),
    • Level of attainment that can be achieved upon programme completion (e.g. insufficient for level completion or partial level completion, sufficient for partial level completion without direct access to tertiary education),
    • Field of education (ISCED-F13).

    Additionally, the following types of indicators on enrolments are calculated (all indicators using population data use Eurostat’s population database (demo_pjan)):

    • Participation rates by age or by age groups as % of corresponding age population.
    • Participation rates by age as % of total population.
    • Pupils from age 0, 3, 4 and 5 to the starting age of compulsory education at primary level, as % of the population of the corresponding age. In some countries, the start of primary education is not compulsory and in some countries compulsory education starts at pre-primary level. This indicator calculates the participation rates of pupils up until (but not including) the starting age of formal education that is both compulsory and at the primary level. This age varies from 5 years to 7 years across countries and the national starting ages for compulsory primary education used in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators which is available to download in the Annexes section of this page.
    • Pupils under the age of 3 as % of corresponding age population. This indicator does not include 3 year olds (includes ages 0, 1 and 2).
    • Out-of-school rates at different ages. This indicator is calculated as 100 – (students of a particular age who are enrolled in education at any ISCED level / Total population of that age *100).
      • Out-of-school rates in population of lower secondary school age and in population of upper secondary school age. This indicator is calculated as 100 – (students who are of the official age range for ISCED X who are enrolled in education at any ISCED level / Total population in the official age range for ISCED X *100). The official age range for each ISCED level varies across countries, and national age ranges for lower and upper secondary used in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators which is available to download in the Annexes section of this page.
      • Students in education of post-compulsory school age - as % of the total population of post-compulsory school age. The final age at which formal education is considered as compulsory in national education systems in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators.
      • Students participation at the end of compulsory education - as % of the corresponding age population. Indicator is calculated for age (X-1), (X), (X+1), (X+2) where X = the final age at which formal education is compulsory in national education systems. The final age at which formal education is considered as compulsory in national education systems in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators.
      • Students in education aged 30 and over - per 1000 of corresponding age population
        • Expected school years of pupils and students at different levels of education
        • Distribution of pupils and students enrolled in general and vocational programmes by education level and NUTS2 regions
        • Distribution of students in different fields of education
        • Ratio of the proportion of the population who are tertiary students in NUTS1 regions to the proportion of the population who are tertiary students in NUTS2 regions

    Data on entrants in education are disseminated in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Programme orientation (general/academic or vocational/professional),
    • Sex,
    • Age or age group,
    • Field of education (ISCED-F13).

    Additionally the following indicator on entrants is calculated:

    • Distribution of new entrants in different fields of education.

    Data on learning mobility is available for degree mobile students, degree mobile graduates and credit mobile graduates. Degree mobility means that students/graduates are/were enrolled as regular students in any semester/term of a programme taught in the country of destination with the intention of graduating from it in the country of destination. Credit mobility is defined as temporary tertiary education or/and study-related traineeship abroad within the framework of enrolment in a tertiary education programme at a "home institution" (usually) for the purpose of gaining academic credit (i.e. credit that will be recognised in that home institution). Further definitions are in Section 2.8 of the UOE manual.

    Degree mobile students are referred to as just ‘mobile students’ in UOE learning mobility tables. Data is disseminated for degree mobile students and degree mobile graduates in absolute numbers with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Sex,
    • Field of education (ISCED-F13),
    • Country of origin (defined as the country of education prior to entering tertiary although there may be national deviations. These are listed in the Helpsheet of the latest footnotes report available to download in the Annexes section of this page) – referred to as ‘Geopolitical entity (partner)’ in Eurobase.

    Additionally the following types of indicators on degree mobile students and degree mobile graduates are calculated ((all indicators using population data use Eurostat’s population database (demo_pjan)):

    • Share of all students/graduates who are mobile students/degree mobile graduates from abroad,
    • Distribution of mobile students/degree mobile graduates from abroad in different fields of education.

    For credit mobile graduates, data are disseminated in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Sex,
    • Type of mobility scheme (e.g. Credit mobility under EU programmes i.e. ERASMUS, Credit mobility in other international/national programmes),
    • Type of mobility (study period only or study period combined with work placement),
    • Country of destination – referred to as ‘Geopolitical entity (partner)’ in Eurobase.

    Data on personnel in education are available for classroom teachers/academic staff, teacher aides and school-management personnel. Teachers are employed in a professional capacity to guide and direct the learning experiences of students, irrespective of their training, qualifications or delivery mechanism. Teacher aides support teachers in providing instruction to students. Academic staff are personnel employed at the tertiary level of education whose primary assignment is instruction and/or research. School management personnel covers professional personnel who are responsible for school management/administration (ISCED 0-4) or whose primary or major responsibility is the management of the institution, or a recognised department or subdivision of the institution (tertiary levels). Full definitions of these statistical units are in Section 3.5 of the UOE manual.

    Data are disseminated on teachers and academic staff in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    Description

    This domain covers statistics and indicators on key aspects of the education systems across Europe. The data show entrants and enrolments in education levels, education personnel and the cost and type of resources dedicated to education.

    For a general technical description of the UOE Data Collection see UNESCO OECD Eurostat (UOE) joint data collection – methodology - Statistics Explained (europa.eu).

    The standards on international statistics on education and training systems are set by the three international organisations jointly administering the annual UOE data collection:

    • The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation Institute for Statistics (UNESCO-UIS),
    • The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and,
    • The Statistical Office of the European Union (EUROSTAT).

    The following topics are covered:

    • Pupils and students – Enrolments and Entrants,
    • Learning mobility,
    • Education personnel,
    • Education finance,
    • Graduates,
    • Language learning.

    Data on enrolments in education are disseminated in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Sex,
    • Age or age group,
    • NUTS1 and NUTS2 regions,
    • Type of educational institution (public or private) – referred to as the ‘sector’ in Eurobase,
    • Intensity of participation (full-time, part-time, full-time equivalent) – referred to as ‘working time’ in Eurobase,
    • Programme orientation (general/academic or vocational/professional),
    • Type of vocational programme (school-based only or combined school and work-based),
    • Level of attainment that can be achieved upon programme completion (e.g. insufficient for level completion or partial level completion, sufficient for partial level completion without direct access to tertiary education),
    • Field of education (ISCED-F13).

    Additionally, the following types of indicators on enrolments are calculated (all indicators using population data use Eurostat’s population database (demo_pjan)):

    • Participation rates by age or by age groups as % of corresponding age population.
    • Participation rates by age as % of total population.
    • Pupils from age 0, 3, 4 and 5 to the starting age of compulsory education at primary level, as % of the population of the corresponding age. In some countries, the start of primary education is not compulsory and in some countries compulsory education starts at pre-primary level. This indicator calculates the participation rates of pupils up until (but not including) the starting age of formal education that is both compulsory and at the primary level. This age varies from 5 years to 7 years across countries and the national starting ages for compulsory primary education used in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators which is available to download in the Annexes section of this page.
    • Pupils under the age of 3 as % of corresponding age population. This indicator does not include 3 year olds (includes ages 0, 1 and 2).
    • Out-of-school rates at different ages. This indicator is calculated as 100 – (students of a particular age who are enrolled in education at any ISCED level / Total population of that age *100).
      • Out-of-school rates in population of lower secondary school age and in population of upper secondary school age. This indicator is calculated as 100 – (students who are of the official age range for ISCED X who are enrolled in education at any ISCED level / Total population in the official age range for ISCED X *100). The official age range for each ISCED level varies across countries, and national age ranges for lower and upper secondary used in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators which is available to download in the Annexes section of this page.
      • Students in education of post-compulsory school age - as % of the total population of post-compulsory school age. The final age at which formal education is considered as compulsory in national education systems in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators.
      • Students participation at the end of compulsory education - as % of the corresponding age population. Indicator is calculated for age (X-1), (X), (X+1), (X+2) where X = the final age at which formal education is compulsory in national education systems. The final age at which formal education is considered as compulsory in national education systems in the calculation of this indicator are listed in the file Ages_educ_indicators.
      • Students in education aged 30 and over - per 1000 of corresponding age population
        • Expected school years of pupils and students at different levels of education
        • Distribution of pupils and students enrolled in general and vocational programmes by education level and NUTS2 regions
        • Distribution of students in different fields of education
        • Ratio of the proportion of the population who are tertiary students in NUTS1 regions to the proportion of the population who are tertiary students in NUTS2 regions

    Data on entrants in education are disseminated in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Programme orientation (general/academic or vocational/professional),
    • Sex,
    • Age or age group,
    • Field of education (ISCED-F13).

    Additionally the following indicator on entrants is calculated:

    • Distribution of new entrants in different fields of education.

    Data on learning mobility is available for degree mobile students, degree mobile graduates and credit mobile graduates. Degree mobility means that students/graduates are/were enrolled as regular students in any semester/term of a programme taught in the country of destination with the intention of graduating from it in the country of destination. Credit mobility is defined as temporary tertiary education or/and study-related traineeship abroad within the framework of enrolment in a tertiary education programme at a "home institution" (usually) for the purpose of gaining academic credit (i.e. credit that will be recognised in that home institution). Further definitions are in Section 2.8 of the UOE manual.

    Degree mobile students are referred to as just ‘mobile students’ in UOE learning mobility tables. Data is disseminated for degree mobile students and degree mobile graduates in absolute numbers with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Sex,
    • Field of education (ISCED-F13),
    • Country of origin (defined as the country of education prior to entering tertiary although there may be national deviations. These are listed in the Helpsheet of the latest footnotes report available to download in the Annexes section of this page) – referred to as ‘Geopolitical entity (partner)’ in Eurobase.

    Additionally the following types of indicators on degree mobile students and degree mobile graduates are calculated ((all indicators using population data use Eurostat’s population database (demo_pjan)):

    • Share of all students/graduates who are mobile students/degree mobile graduates from abroad,
    • Distribution of mobile students/degree mobile graduates from abroad in different fields of education.

    For credit mobile graduates, data are disseminated in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:

    • ISCED level of education,
    • Sex,
    • Type of mobility scheme (e.g. Credit mobility under EU programmes i.e. ERASMUS, Credit mobility in other international/national programmes),
    • Type of mobility (study period only or study period combined with work placement),
    • Country of destination – referred to as ‘Geopolitical entity (partner)’ in Eurobase.

    Data on personnel in education are available for classroom teachers/academic staff, teacher aides and school-management personnel. Teachers are employed in a professional capacity to guide and direct the learning experiences of students, irrespective of their training, qualifications or delivery mechanism. Teacher aides support teachers in providing instruction to students. Academic staff are personnel employed at the tertiary level of education whose primary assignment is instruction and/or research. School management personnel covers professional personnel who are responsible for school management/administration (ISCED 0-4) or whose primary or major responsibility is the management of the institution, or a recognised department or subdivision of the institution (tertiary levels). Full definitions of these statistical units are in Section 3.5 of the UOE manual.

    Data are disseminated on teachers and academic staff in absolute numbers, with breakdowns available for the following dimensions:
