Education in Belize

Education in Belize is governed by the Education Act (Chapter 36 of the Laws of Belize).[1]

The Human Rights Measurement Initiative (HRMI)[2] finds that Belize is fulfilling only 84.4% of what it should be fulfilling for the right to education based on the country's level of income.[3] HRMI breaks down the right to education by looking at the rights to both primary education and secondary education. While taking into consideration Belize's income level, the nation is achieving 92.5% of what should be possible based on its resources (income) for primary education but only 76.4% for secondary education.[4]
