3.2: Gender Parity Index (GPI) for secondary - 0.81 (2010)
Ÿ Gender disparity is high at all levels of education including primary, high and middle.
Ÿ PSLM 2008-09 data suggests that about 51% population aged 10 years and older never attended any school
Ÿ Significant decline in secondary school NAR at 36% on average, (36% for boys and 31% for girls) shows that most
children do not continue education beyond primary level
Ÿ Only 23% of rural females ever-attended any school and only 1% graduated from primary or higher levels
Ÿ One of the major reasons for low enrollment at secondary levels is difficult access to the schools. For 213 primary
schools in the district, there are only 17 middle and 16 high schools which is very less.
Ÿ There is also general scarcity of female teachers as on average there is only one primary teacher per 42 pupils.
Ÿ Primary school completion rate is 64% which is relatively better.
16.1. Introduction
16.2. School Enrollment and Participation Rates
According to official statistics collected through Annual School
Census, the overall student population in 246 public primary,
middle and high schools is 28,750, whereas, 1,449 students were
enrolled in Colleges, of which, 789 were boys and 660 were girls.
16.3. Enrollment Rates
MICS conducted in 2010 has reported primary Net Attendance Ratio of school-going children at 56% with girls significantly
lower than boys (49% versus 60%).This indicates that 44% children were still out of school, which will either join late, or
probably will never get enrolled. Significant decline in secondary school NAR at 36% on average, (36% for boys and 31% for
girls) shows that most children do not continue education beyond primary level. Similarly, Gross Enrollment Rate of
primary and middle schools were 99% and 53% respectively. For details see tables I3 and I4 Annexure I.

Educational attainment is also very low in the district. PSLM 2008-09 data suggests that about 51% population aged 10
years and older never attended any school, while, only 13% reportedly having completed this level. This is more
pronounced for rural females, where only 23% had ever-attended any school and only 1% graduated from primary or
higher levels. The best opportunities seem to lie with urban males, where nearly 70% ever attend and 26% completed
primary levels. For details see tables I5 and I6 Annexure I.
