Class sizes in organizations providing educational activities under primary, basic general and secondary general education programmes at the beginning of the academic year
persons
The average number of students per class in schools providing primary, basic, and general secondary education varies by age. The rows are divided into three groups: primary school (grades 1–4), basic (grades 5–9), and upper secondary (grades 10–11). Data is collected for all academic years from 2000/2001 to 2023/2024, allowing for the tracking of trends in student density

How to read this table
Indicators can be compared across different education levels to see class density for primary students versus graduating classes. Each row provides the average number of students per class for a specific academic year. The division into grades 1–4, 5–9, and 10–11 helps assess the load on school infrastructure and the number of school places at different stages of a child's education
