Education is the means to develop people's lives, which can migrate from one social stage to another. Also the acquisition of better levels of education contributes to community in development by putting in this knowledge transfer applications to achieve transcend regional and national level and thus to improve the global economy.

However, although there is great progress in the implementation of educational policies to improve scholastic standards of the population, there are still very low indicators, for 2010 there is an illiteracy about 15%, also in rural this rate varies by 22% while in urban areas is barely about 8%. When this indicator is disaggregated by age is worrisome describe even the 24 years this rate reaches 10% (INE, 2010). When observe and described the attendance rates at length, it is disturbing to consider that from the decade of 1990 to 2010 these rates are still low even for the period in question.
