"Tripura has achieved full literacy with ~95.6% literacy; yet rural-urban divides, enrollment gaps and quality in remote areas remain in focus."
In 2025 Tripura became India’s third fully literate state, with an estimated literacy rate of 95.6%, following effective adult education and school enrolment drives through the ULLAS programme. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} Primary enrolment is strong and government schools are fairly accessible, but remote tribal regions still face challenges such as connectivity, school infrastructure, and retaining qualified teachers. Gender gaps in literacy are relatively narrow but persist in some blocks. Health, transport and family economic stability play a role in preparing children to benefit fully.
Based on the above factors and the IQ test history, the average IQ in Tripura is 97.
Tripura’s path forward involves sustaining literacy gains while improving schooling quality in remote districts, further narrowing gender and tribal disparities, and enhancing infrastructure (roads, broadband, schools). Remedial and remedial reading/numeracy programs, stronger teacher support in hard-to-reach areas, and better linkages with health and nutrition will help. As early education solidifies, attention to maintaining enrolment through all grades and enabling smooth transitions to higher education or skill training will boost readiness for all communities.
