What This Learning Figure Means
This game compares learning poverty at the end of primary age.
- Learning poverty combines low reading proficiency with out-of-school children of the same age.
- It is not only a school-quality figure; exclusion from school is built into it.
- That makes it a compact systems measure of who gets left out and who sits in classrooms without learning enough.
Learning poverty is where enrollment slogans crash into actual reading outcomes.
