basic education
Primary learning foundation
Basic education is the foundational level of schooling—typically reading, writing, and arithmetic—considered essential for functioning in society.
The term usually covers primary and sometimes lower secondary education: Every child deserves access to basic education.
In development contexts, basic education often refers to minimum literacy and numeracy goals for populations with limited schooling.
