Nationwide, the percentage of pupils mastering reading/writing increased from 59.0% in 1995 to 61.6% in 1998. Males and females had essentially the same rate of increase between 1995 and 1998), but the percentage of females (64.4% in 1995 and 66.9% in 1998) was greater than that of the males (53.4% in 1995 and 56.2% in 1998) during both years.

There was practically no improvement in the urban areas; in contrast, there was a significant improvement in the rural areas. In terms of the percentage of students mastering reading/writing, the urban areas nevertheless had an edge over the rural areas in 1995 (urban:64.2%; rural:51.7%) and in 1998 (urban:64.5%; rural:57.7%).

Females performed better than males in the urban areas in 1995; however, the situation was reversed in 1998 owing to the combination of the increase in the percentage of males and the big drop in the female percentage between the two years. Although males and females posted increases between 1995 and 1998, females maintained their edge over the males.
