Diversification of the structure of secondary education and educational segmentation in Latin America

One of the main objectives of this series of studies on the diversification of secondary education and educational segmentation in Latin America is to contribute to the development of more inclusive public policies. This document presents the results of a quantitative and qualitative study on the dynamics of educational segmentation in six countries in the region, together with an analysis of the experience of adolescents and young people in scenarios of extended compulsory schooling. The study reflects the significant progress made in extending schooling, as well as the challenges that remain in ensuring common, egalitarian, high-quality educational experiences with a focus on diversity.
