There is both private and public education available in the Dominican Republic. The public systems provide one year of pre-school and Grade 1 to Grade 12 education. School is obligatory from pre-school until Grade 8. Private schools also provide Nursery and Kindergarten education. Public schooling is free but children are required to wear a uniform to attend and these are not provided free of charge. There are both public and private universities in the major cities and approximately 85% of the Dominican Republic is considered literate.
Slightly worn and a bit gritty from all the coming and going, the 12-ounce bottles, which sell for roughly $1.25 a pop, are being bought up and sucked dry at record clips in cities across the country with large Latino populations.

Not sure if this is what you need for the education but this is what I found:

C. Education

420. Education in the Dominican Republic still faces grave problems, despite the efforts of the Dominican state. This is observed in the indices of education, illiteracy rates, and attendance of minors in school.

421. According to the World Bank, 13% of children ages 7 to 14 do not attend class because they work outside the home or stay home doing house chores. Approximately 11% work and go to school at the same time, which means that for one-fourth of the population of minors it is impossible to continue the education they need to become more skilled.242

422. Illiteracy among minors in the Dominican Republic is relatively high. According to UNICEF, 15.6% of minors ages 10 to 17 years do not know how to read or write, and only 25 of every 100 adolescents ages 15 to 17 have been to secondary school.243 Dropping out of school to join the work force, dropping the books and taking up work, is probably the most serious problem children face.

Hope this helps ...
