The bar charts illustrates the gender distribution of teachers across six types of educational institutions in the U.K. in 2019. It shows what percentage of teachers were male and what percentage were female.
Women teachers outnumbered male teachers especially in Nursery-Pre School and Primary School. The gender gap was particularly large in schools for ver young children. For example, over 95 percent and 90 percent of teachers were women in Nursery and Primary schools respectively.
Men and women were more equally represented in teaching institutions catering for older children and young adults. Collage lecturers, for example, were 50 percent female and 50 percent male.
Male teachers made up a large proportion of teacher group in higher level institutions. This was particularly true for university lecturers, where there were twice as many male teachers as female teachers.
Overall, men and women had a different teaching ability, so gender figures of teachers were separate from each other in the different types of educational institutions.
