Government expenditure on post-secondary non-tertiary education, constant US$ (millions)

Total general (local, regional and central) government expenditure on post-secondary non-tertiary education (current, capital, and transfers) in millions US$ in constant value (taking into account inflation). It includes expenditure funded by transfers from international sources to government. Total government expenditure for a given level of education (e.g. primary, secondary, or all levels combined) in national currency is converted to US$, and where it is expressed in constant value, uses a GDP deflator to account for inflation. The constant prices base year is normally three years before the year of the data release. For example, in the July 2017 data release, constant US$ values are expressed in 2014 prices. Limitations: In some instances data on total government expenditure on education refers only to the Ministry of Education, excluding other ministries which may also spend a part of their budget on educational activities.

涵盖地方、区域与中央各级的一般政府（general government）在中等后非高等教育（post-secondary non-tertiary education）领域的总支出统计，包含经常性支出、资本支出与转移支付，以扣除通胀后的不变价百万美元为计价单位，且纳入由国际来源向政府转移支付所资助的支出。
特定教育层级（如小学、中学或各级教育总和）的政府总支出以本币核算后换算为美元；若以不变价形式发布，则采用GDP平减指数（GDP deflator）消除通胀影响。不变价的基准年份通常为数据发布年份的前三年。例如，2017年7月发布的数据中，不变价美元以2014年为基准价。
局限性说明：部分场景下，教育领域政府总支出数据仅涵盖教育部的开支，未纳入其他可能将部分预算用于教育活动的政府部门相关支出。
