This chapter surveys quantitative changes in recent years in the Israeli education system: student population, schools, and teachers.
The survey analyzes cross-sections by age in various educational institutions – preschools, primary schools, and post-primary schools – of varying levels and types, as well as post-secondary schools and higher education (colleges and universities). There are additional vertical cross-sectional analyses by sector, differentiating between Jewish and Arab schools and within them by type of school system.
