• In Spain despite having high unemployment rates regardless of the level of education, the risk of unemployment decreases sharply with the level of educational attainment: unemployment rate of 21% for adults without upper secondary education, 14% for those with upper secondary education, and 8% for adults with tertiary education.
• From 2005 to 2017, the first-time graduation rate for upper secondary education has sharply increased: from 56% to 81%, getting closer to the OECD and EU23 averages which were both 86%.
• About 97% of children from age 3 to 5 are enrolled in early childhood education, compared to 87% on average across OECD countries. Enrolment among children under the age of 3 was 36% (higher than OECD average of 26% and EU23 average of 23%) in 2017.
• Tertiary-educated women earn 82% of the earnings of tertiary-educated men, compared to 75% of the OECD average or to 76% of EU23 average, showing a smaller gender gap in Spain.
• Spain spends 3.1% of its gross domestic product (GDP) on primary and secondary education, compared to 3.5% for the OECD average. Total expenditure per full-time student relative to GDP per capita is on a par with the OECD and EU23 averages of 23%.
