Literal question
What is the highest grade (name) completed at this level?
Post-question
If less than 1 grade, enter 00.
Interviewer instructions
For each household member age five or older, ask ED3 and ED4. These questions ask about educational attainment for all household members in this age group. (If children younger than five attend school or preschool, this information will be recorded in the Questionnaire for Children Under Five.) 

Enter the highest grade completed or '98' for 'DK' ('Doesn't know'). If less than one grade, enter '00'. For instance, if a person has attended primary school but did not complete the first grade, then the level for this person will be circled as '1', and the grade will be entered as '00'.

Similarly, for a child who is attending grade 5 in primary school at the time of the interview, the level will be coded as '1' and the grade as '04', since this person has not yet completed grade 5.

Note that if the level of schooling is given as preschool, the grade should be left blank.
