Red face one who's never get a chance to go to school

What is the polite way to describe someone who's never get a chance to go to school that's why he/she is unable to read or write.
  1. He is uneducated
  2. He is illiterate
  3. He is unlearned
Are the above expression polite?
How could I make them better in order not to look down upon him?

Thanks
