4. HIGHLIGHTS
Spain’s educational context
Students:
• 100% enrolment in early childhood education
• Comprehensive education until age 16
• Grade repetition
• Enrolment in VET is lower than the OECD average
• Dropout rates
Institutions:
• Spanish learning environments positive
• The ratio of students per teacher below the OECD average
• Principals
• Evaluation and assessment

5. Governance and funding:
• Education objectives are aligned to EU 2020 priorities.
• Most schooling decisions are taken at the regional level
• Limited autonomy for individual schools
Key policy issues
• Spanish system-level policies such as grade repetition have the potential to
impair equity and contribute to student dropout.
• High dropout and youth unemployment rates : efforts to consolidate basic
skills and better match labour market needs, focusing on quality of
education and provision of vocational education and training
• Schools require sustained support to respond to the rapid and large
increase in the proportion of immigrant children they have experienced.
• Given the on-going crisis and recent budget cuts, Spain faces a major
challenge as it strives to continue delivering and raising the quality of
education and skills

6. Recent policy responses
• Spain aims to promote education improvement, mainly through a new law, the
Organic Law for the Improvement of Educational Quality (LOMCE, 2013).
• To reduce dropout:
• a range of targeted programmes available
• and a new dual VET system (2012) combination of training with
employment

7. EQUITY AND QUALITY: EARLY START IN EDUCATION
BUT BARRIERS TO EQUITY AND HIGH DROPOUT RATE
• Highest early childhood education enrolment rates among OECD countries
• Comprehensive education until the end of lower secondary education
• Policies low socio-economic status to attend their preferred school
• Grade repetition is also largely used: about one out of three students
(35%) have repeated a grade at least once by age 15.
 grade repetition is ineffective in improving outcomes
 can contribute to dropout
 can be costly to the system
 about 30% of students in lower secondary education in Spain do
not graduate with the certificate necessary to access upper
secondary education
