Questions 11 to 19
These questions ask about the level of formal education of the population. They should be answered only by persons 3 years old or more.
Starting here, persons three years old or more answer the questions.
Question 13: What level does he/she attend?
In the majority of the provinces there is a new educational structure in place that is established by the Federal Law of Education. This process of educational transformation has been completed in some jurisdictions while others continue with the previous structure. Therefore, to complete this answer, you should ask which educational structure the interviewee is attending.
The levels that are involved in this transformation are the following:
Level / Grade or year / Characteristics
Initial level (kindergarten or pre-school) / / Includes the school education from 3 years old to enrollment in EGB (General Basic Education)
General Basic Education (EGB) / 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th / This is the basic level of obligatory education that is required by law. It takes nine years to complete.
Multi-modal / 1st, 2nd, 3rd / This prepares students for higher education. It is completed in three years.
If the interviewee is enrolled in Initial level (Kindergarten / Pre-school), mark the bubble and consider the administration of the Form for this person finalized.
Remember that in this question, you should only mark one option.
Let's see some examples:
--Sebastian is enrolled in 3rd year in a technical high school, where the educational transformation has not been implemented. You will mark: "High school."
--Tomas is 14 years old and is enrolled in 9th year of a municipal school. You will mark "EGB."
