Education in Chile
Chile’s education system can foster stronger economic, democratic and social development
in the country. There are significant macroeconomic benefits to education, such as
increased productivity. That said, individuals tend to benefit the most from high-quality,
equitable education systems.
In 2004, the OECD performed a review of national education policies and an analysis
of the Chilean education system. This review aims to identify key changes in the Chilean
education system mainly from 2004-16, in order to analyse where education in Chile
stands today and offer recommendations to help provide better education opportunities
for all Chileans in the coming years. The review therefore examines different areas
of education policy in Chile, from early childhood education and care (ECEC) to higher
education.
