Foreword
The first edition of Education at a Glance appeared in September 1992. This fourth edition presents an updated set of the OECD education indicators that covers a wider range of educational domains and is more internationally comparable.
Like its predecessors, the publication is the fruit ofthe collective effort of policy officials, civil servants, researchers and statisticians from 30 countries. The indicators have been prepared and discussed by the INES Technical Group and by four Networks of countries which co-operate with the OECD Secretariat in developing indicators of common interest in accordance with the policy priorities of the Member countries and the conceptual framework prepared by the OECD-INES project.
The publication was prepared by the Statistics and Indicators Division of the OECD Directorate for Education, Employment, Labour and Social Affairs. This work was facilitated by the fman-cial and material support of the four countries responsible for co-ordinating the INES Networks - the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom (Scotland) and the United States. In addition, work on the pubhcation has been aided by a grant from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in the United States. Education at a Glance - Indicators is published on the responsibility ofthe Secretary General of the OECD.
