Education in Bolivia, as in many other areas of Bolivia life, has a divide between
Bolivia’s rural and urban areas. Rural illiteracy levels remain high, even as the rest of
the country becomes increasingly literate. This disparity stems partly from the fact my
children living in rural areas are forced to contribute economically to their family
households and thus are much less likely to attend school. On average, children from
rural areas attend school for 4.2 years, while children in urban areas receive an average
of 9.4 years of education. A gender divide also exists. Females, on average, receive
about 1.5 years less schooling than males. The female illiteracy rate is 19.6% while that
for males is 7.7%. The country's illiteracy level as a whole, 13-14%, is comparably

higher than in other South American countries. The problems with Bolivia education are
not necessarily attributable to lack of funding. Boliva devotes 23% of its annual budget
to educational expenditures, a higher percentage than in most other South American
countries, albeit from a smaller national budget. A comprehensive seven-year plan of
education reform has made some significant changes. Initiated in 1994, the plan
decentralized educational funding in order to meet diverse local needs, improved teacher
training and curricula, and changed the school grade system. Resistance from teachers
Unions, however, has slowed implementation of some of the intended reforms.
