La alfabetización del país caribeño varía desde un mínimo del 85 % (alfabetización funcional) hasta un máximo del 98 %. En los últimos años se incorporaron tecnologías en el sector educativo público y privado, instalando laboratorios de computación y alfabetización electrónica en todos los centros escolares. (es)
