| | Education Levels Rising in OECD Countries but Low Attainment Still Hampers Some |
 | | Austria, France and Germany are the only countries which did not see increases, mainly because rising enrolment rates could not make up for the demographic decline in these countries ( Table C2.2). |
 | | In contrast, in Austria, Ireland, Switzerland and the United States, increases in the share of foreign enrolment ranged between only 8% and 13%, and Poland, the United Kingdom and Turkey saw declines in their share of foreign enrolment. |
 | | On average, foreign enrolment increased by 34% between 1998 and 2002 ( Table C3.6) and the share of foreign students from throughout the world as a percentage of all students increased in the Czech Republic, Iceland, Korea, New Zealand and Sweden by 60% or more. |
