"Assam shows moderate literacy (~87%), strong primary enrolment, but issues around dropouts, multilingual instruction, and remote rural access affect consistency."
Assam’s recent literacy estimates are around 87%, with primary school enrolment high. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3} Yet challenges persist: student retention from primary to secondary is uneven, especially in remote rural and tea garden regions. Language diversity requires multilingual instruction. Infrastructure deficits—roads, school buildings, toilets, and digital access—are more severe in villages. Socioeconomic stress, migration, and seasonal labour affect regular school attendance and learning readiness in many parts of the state.
Based on the above factors and the IQ test history, the average IQ in Assam is 92.
Improving outcomes in Assam will require strengthening school facilities in remote areas, increasing teacher deployment, and improving multilingual and remedial instruction. Early childhood programmes, health and nutrition supports, and transport to reach isolated communities are essential. State policies should target drop-out prevention and ensure that the gains in enrolment translate into learning continuity and attainment across all districts.
