The Ecuadorian Constitution requires that all children attend school until they achieve a “basic level of education,” which is estimated at nine school years.
The Human Rights Measurement Initiative (HRMI)[1] finds that Ecuador is fulfilling only 83.4% of what it should be fulfilling for the right to education based on the country's level of income.[2] HRMI breaks down the right to education by looking at the rights to both primary education and secondary education. While taking into consideration Ecuador's income level, the nation is achieving 79.6% of what should be possible based on its resources (income) for primary education and 87.3% for secondary education.[3]
