Primary education is compulsory for Guatemalans. This period of education chiefly applies to children 7 to 14 years of age. Before the 1990s, the educational system of the country included only about 8,500 primary schools and was attended by a mere annual average of 1,098,000 pupils.
Secondary schools, on the other hand, were attended by 241,100 students. By 1997, the numbers grew, having 1,544,709 pupils attending primary schools and 384,729 for the secondary schools. In 1999, the student-teacher ratio was 1 is to 39, owing to the fact that there are, roughly, a mere 23,000 teachers relative to the number of students attending not only in primary schools. Within that same year, 81% of the population included in the specific age bracket attended primary school; while secondary school enrollment was not very promising, as it was only a mere 18%.
