A) Primary schooling is almost universal, today, three out of four children are enrolled in pre- and secondary school.
This sentence has two independent clauses without conjunction so it is fragment.
B) Three out of four children are enrolled in both pre- and secondary school and it is almost universal today.
"it" is ambiguous. It refers to "pre-school" or "secondary school"?
C) Today, primary schooling is almost universal, and three out of four children are enrolled in both pre- and secondary school.
Correct. This sentence is clear and precise.
D) Today, primary school is almost universal, and three out of four children enrolled are in it.
This choice change the original meaning
E) Primary schooling is universal today, almost three out of four children are enrolled in pre- and secondary school.
This choice makes the sentence fragment

Please clarify the OA. As current answer meant 3 out of 4 children are enrolled in both pre and secondary school. Per me, children can be in either one of them, therefore chose D.
