The first graph provides data about the proportion of school-aged girls and boys in secondary school in four regions in 2000. The second chart depicts the percentages of college-aged males and females in colleges or universities in the same year.
Overall, the proportion of people attending secondary school in all four regions was relatively higher than that of college-aged people in higher education. Furthermore, more men from these areas gained both levels of education than women.
The percentages of school-aged students from Europe and Latin America in secondary school in 2000 show the similar trend- more girls going there than boys. The difference between females and males going there in Europe was negligible, with first category being higher. Similarly, more girls than boys went there in Latin America, at 60% and about 50% respectively. On the contrary, in East Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, more boys went to secondary schools than girls, making the gap at around 10%.
Regarding older students receiving higher education, fraction of Europe and Latin America remained the highest among all regions, at 60-70% and 20-15% respectively, although more men went to universities than women in the second area. Likewise, less than 10% of people went to universities in the remaining two regions, with more males attending them.
