The higher the percentage of children taught in their home language, the higher the probability that they acquire cognitive skills such as beginning reading and writing. Data for this indicator are compiled by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics from sources like El Laboratorio Latinoamericano de Evaluación de la Calidad de la Educación (LLECE), Programme d'analyse des systèmes éducatifs de la confemen (PASEC), Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS).
