Increase in the dropout rate in first grade of elementary school
The Deputy of Elementary Education at the Ministry of Education, in the process of evaluations, identified one of the indicators as the repetition rate in the first grade, which was 3% in the elementary period and 10% in the first grade, which is a shocking statistic and needs special attention.
The situation in rural areas was worse compared to urban areas.
The dropout rate in the first grade of elementary school was more severe, and we concluded that we need to focus on the first grade.
We have 303 schools with only one student and 4772 schools with fewer than five students.
