The bar graph displays Britain’s demographic of men and women who are enrolling into either full-time or part-time education between the years 1970 to 1991, measured in millions.
Overall, it is evident from the graph that the full-time education method was well preferred than part-time education in the given time period. In addition, while initially men had larger enrollment numbers, it was then surpassed in later years by women in both full-time and part-time education, reaching equivalent enrollment by the 1990s.
In regards to full-time education, men started their enrollment in the 1970 school year, taking up 1 million spots before dipping slightly to somewhere above 800 thousand in 1980 and then making a mild recovery in 1990, reaching 900 thousand enrollments. In contrast, women in education started out with a low number of 700 thousand participants in 1970, however the trend gradually increased over the years, climbing to approximately 800 thousand in 1980 and finally surpassing male enrollment in 1990 with 1.1 million participants.
The trend for part-time education differs immensely in number as once again women enrollment started out lower in the 1970 school year at barely rising above 100 thousand students. Despite this, women had already surpassed the number of enrollment of men in 1980, with just under 200 thousand participants. From then on, females experienced a slow but steady increase as it reached an equivalent number of students as male participants in 1990.
