Parity indices, (female/male) lower secondary OOS

Definition:

  • Parity indices, (female/male) lower secondary OOS refers to a ratio to measure how close girls and boys are in terms of attending lower secondary school.

  • A parity index of less than 100 means there's a higher out-of-school rate for girls compared to boys.
