Which Kids Go to School and Why?


We’re excited to kick-off ‘EdBits’, a new video series which will feature education professionals explaining efforts to get all children in school and learning.
Luis Crouch, Lead Education Expert at the Global Partnership for Education (GPE), starts off the series describing fascinating new data from a recently launched GPE report. ‘Results for Learning’ findings show in part that while the number of children in school—particularly girls—has increased, there are remaining challenges in maintaining the quality of education and in raising the necessary financing to educate all of the world’s children.
Chapter 3 of the report focuses on why there are still millions of children out of school—excluded by poverty, gender, conflict, geography and culture. Why have some countries made more progress than others in getting kids into school?
In the video Luis uses a whiteboard to explain graphs like the ones below which show how a child’s income, urban/rural location, or gender affect her/his ability to go to school.
Watch the video and take a look at the graphs from Chapter 3 of the report.
3.3 income
3.3 urban rural
3.3 gender
