Band 5+: You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The chart below shows the number of girls per 100 boys enrolled in different levels of school education. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. You should write at least 150 words.

The given bar graph represents comparative data on the quantity of girls per 100 boys who are getting education in a variety of schools (Primary , Secondary , Tertiary) while comparing developed and developing countries in 1990 and 1998 , also showing the target line.

Overall , the amount of females attempting schools in 1998 is slightly higher than in 1990 . Moreover developed countries encompass much bigger numbers than developing countries.

As can be seen there is no big difference between figures for developed and developing countries for Primary Education while the amount of girls raised from 83 in the 1990 to the 87 in the 1998 for developing countries and from 95 to 96 as developed countries. However the amount of girls who enrolled in Secondary education in the developed countries (98 in 1990 and 99 in 1998) is moderately higher than in the developing countries which accounted for 72 in 1990 and 82 for 1998. In addition girls who enrolled in Secondary education countries almost reach the target line.

Regarding Tertiary Education , the figures of girls for developing countries per 1000 boys is nowhere near as high as for developed countries , 66 in 1990 and 75 in 1998 and 105,112 respectively.
