Yemen 4th Grade Subjects - Math

Information on the specific curriculum for 4th grade math in Yemen is limited. However, the available information suggests that:

• General Education in Yemen: Yemen's education system is structured as a 9-year basic education program, theoretically compulsory but facing challenges in universal implementation. Primary school enrollment is around 67% of the total enrolled students. The education system is overseen by the Ministry of Education. The country has been facing a severe education crisis, with millions of children out of school. Various organizations, including UNICEF and USAID, are working to support and improve education in Yemen.
• 4th Grade Education: In elementary schools, children study approximately 20 hours a week. A 2014 report indicated that 4th graders studied math for 4 hours a week. Public schools are generally co-ed until 4th grade, although boys and girls are often seated separately. The repetition rate for 4th grade is higher than the average repetition rate across primary grades. Yemen participated in the 2011 TIMSS assessment for 4th grade math and science.
