ABSTRACT
Gender inequality in educationhasbeena buzzwordinoureducational system
in recent decades. This paper identifies the factor that creates gender
inequality in education and in the world in general. Our study focuses on the
identified factors that elevate the existence of gender inequality in education.
Based on the literature, recent studies and reports shows that there are 5
factors that contribute to the existence of gender inequality in education and
these include poverty, geographical remoteness, armedconflict,lack ofschool
infrastructure, and quality of education. The researchers strongly believed
that our young learners are our future innovators and heroes, thus, without
quality education; none of these would be achieved. The results suggest that
our educational system needs to collaborate with the private sector and
provide innovative measures to address these issues of gender inequality in
education.

INTRODUCTION
Gender Equality is very important at nowadays. It'sbecause
women have to deserve equal things as same as the men.
Such as, education, rights, and privileges in the society.
Women also can get a good education, and women also have
a power to change the world, for giving an opinion, and
sharing what they feel about something (Shaffa, 2019).
According to the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human
Rights recognised the right to education, stating that
education should be free and compulsoryforeverybody,and
higher levels of education should be accessible to all
(Santosh et al. 2011). On the one hand, education is seenasa
human right that is essential in order to fulfil the rest of
human rights and the overall world’sdevelopment(UNESCO
2016).
Previous research by (Mesa, 2007; Mueller-Oppliger, 2014;
Salinas & Suson, 2020; Aburayya et al., 2020a) has stated
that the value of education is well-known and is widely
acknowledged. Recognizing it as a crucial instrument in
improving welfare and alleviating poverty,countriesall over
the world have ranked it as a leading global concern. Equal
access to education makes possible the social and economic
mobility of the poor. By enhancing the skills of the
underprivileged groups, education is an important factor in
putting a stop to poverty’s virtuous cycle. Furthermore,
education’s benefits extend beyond the individual level.
Firms, industries and the economy as a whole also benefit
from the improvement in the quality of human capital
brought about by education.
However, equality of access in education is often seen as
being the crucial factor affecting gender based education.
UNESCO (2016) claimed that large gender gaps exist in
access, learning achievement and continuation in education
in many settings. This has been used in several studies to
assess the gender inequality in education. Results of the
studies of (UNGEI, 2009; Gachukia, 2012; Aburayya et al.,
2020c) found out that gender equality in education (GEE
onwards) is crucial to progress towards poverty reduction,
since it enables women and girls to become part of the
labour market, increasing economic productivity, and
empowering them to participate in the decision-making at a
community level, as well as to improve family health and
well-being by reducing the fertility rates and infant and
maternal mortality.

Similarly, Bertocchi & Bozzan0 (2019) claimed that gender-
based inequalities are a universal and pervasive
characteristic of all societies, today and in history.Oneofthe
most crucial dimensions in which gender differences
manifest themselves is in human capital accumulation and
its acquisition through education. In turn, gender gaps in
education are among the mainfactorsthatdeterminegender
disparities in a broad set of socioeconomic realms,including
work, family, and public life.
Moheyuddin (2005) argued that in the world in general and
in the underdeveloped countries (UDCs) in particular, the
women are inadequately served in terms of education,
health, social status, opportunities and legal rights. Bista
(2004) claimed that gender disparity in terms of
participation, learning conditions and funding. Further,
educational policies, acts and programs were not prepared
in a gender sensitive manner. Thecurriculum,text materials,
teacher training and examination practices did not favorite
girls. Moreover, results shows that evidence from the study
of these three countries Zimbabwe, Zambia and Malawi
shows that boys and girls are enrolled almost at parity for
primary school as a whole and yet educational outcomes for
girls are still relatively poor (Bridge, 2019; Aburayya et al.,
2019a).
Finally, ensuring access to and improving the quality of
education for girls and women, as well as removing all
gender stereotyping and further obstacles which impede
their active participation, was stated as the biggest priority
at the world due to unhealthy demands on both sexes which
inhibit their natural talents and interests from developing,
and consequently limit economic progress and prevent
social cohesion (UNGEI2009;Helsinki,2014;Aburayya et al.,
2019b). Moreover, gender equality is a global priority for
UNESCO and inextricably linked to its efforts to promotethe
right to education and support the achievement of
the Sustainable Development Goals. Through the education
2030 framework for action, SGD 4 aims to ensure inclusive
and equitable quality education and promote lifelong
learning opportunities for all’ and SDG 5 to ‘Achieve gender
equality and empower all women andgirls’(UNESCO,2016).
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
While this division of inequalitiesof educationhascontinued
to emerge, this study determines the existence of the factors
that affect gender inequality in education in the perspective
of global systematic review.
METHODOLOGY
This study employed a meta-analysts describe and explain
previously reported statistical significant results that
examine the same phenomenon. Therefore, in simplest
terms, a meta-analysis is a statistical analysis of the survey
findings of a large number of empirical studies (Zeng et al.
2014; Aburayya et al.,2020b).InMeta-analysis isa statistical
technique, or set of statistical techniques, for summarising
the results of several studies into a single estimate. Stanley
(2001) noted that meta-analyses allow the evaluation of the
effect of different data characteristics and methodologieson
the results reported.
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
The literature relied on a wide variety of gender education
initiatives, ranging from Person metrics for composite
indices. According to Jakiela and Hars (2019) gender gaps
narrowed in some places and widened in others. Gender
gaps have developed in some low-education countries
where they did not exist before, but disappeared or
diminished elsewhere. UNESCO (2016) noted that poverty,
geographical isolation, minority status, disability, early
marriage and pregnancy, gender-based violence, and
traditional attitudes about the status and role of women,are
among the many obstacles that stand in the way of women
and girls fully exercising their right to participate in,
complete and benefit from education.
Historical overview
For several decades, differences between boys and girls in
educational achievement have been the focus of scientific
attention. In the seventies, the emphasis was on the low
achievement of girls. Girls had lower scores and
participation in science and mathematicswhencomparedto
boys (Byrne 1978; Foster et al. 2001). Researchers posited
several explanations for these findings, which could be
divided into two categories. Firstly, girls were positioned
within a ‘deficit framework’ (Foster et al. 2001; Hodgetts
2008). Their poor performances were attributed to a lack of
certain qualities, such as low confidence, high anxiety and
fear of success. Furthermore, girls’ tendency tobecompliant
in class, work hard and hand in homework thatwasneatand
on time, was taken as a sign of a passive, compliant and
malleable learning style (Hodgetts 2008). This was
contrasted with boys’ active and curious learning style,
which would be focused on understanding rather than on
achievement or teacher expectations. This way, girls’
attitudes and behaviour in school were taken to be a sign of
an inferior learning style (Byrne 1978). Secondly, several
researchers pointed to factors other than innate traits that
impeded girls’ academic success. They suggested studying
the impact of societal norms and expectations of gendered
behaviour (Byrne1978;SkeltonandFrancis2011;Poligrates
& Suson, 2020). For instance, research pointed out that
textbooks lacked positive role models forgirls,andthatboys
dominated the classroom and teacher attention. These
researchers declared that it was therefore no surprise that
girls would be less confident than boys. Policy
recommendations based on this literature focused on
changing learning material and raising teachers’ awareness
of inequalities in their classroom management by letting
girls answer questions as often as boys, debunking gender
stereotypes concerning mathematics and science,andso on.
Gender Inequality in Education
Gender inequality in education as the process that treats
people (men and women) are treated unequally in access
and opportunity to educational matters. In this study, the
term gender inequality will beusedtoimplysocial injustices,
unfairness in distribution of resources and opportunities
among men and women as these groups try to acquire
education (Osongo, 2019; cited by Linda (2014)). Moreover,
in many poor countries, women are educationally strongly
disadvantaged, and this is clearly connected with sustained
high fertility in many of these countries. In therichcountries
of the West, the situation is very different. There, a major
social development of the secondhalfofthe20thcenturyhas
been the spectacular increase of participation in higher
education in general, and participation by women in
particular. In North America andEuropetoday,women excel
men in terms of participation and success in higher
education. However, research on the demographic

consequences of the reversal of gender inequality in higher
education is rare, even if education, and especially women’s
level of education, has proven to be relevant for all kinds of
demographic behaviour (Lutz et al. 1998, 2008; Vincent-
Lancrin 2008).
Impacts of gender inequality in Education
There is strong relationship betweeninequalityineducation
and poverty. The impact of poverty on a child’s academic
achievement is significant and starts early, oung children
growing up in poverty face challenges with cognitive and
literary ability and [often] begins school both academically
and socioeconomically behind their peers from higher-
income backgrounds. In its 2016 report, The Condition of
Education, the National Center for Education Statistics
attributed living in povertyduring earlychildhood,inpart,to
lower levels of academic performance “beginning in
kindergarten and extending through elementary and high
school” (Taylor, 2017). Despite global efforts to expand
educational opportunities for women, gender inequalities
persist in many developing countries (Osby et al., 2016).
Systematic educational inequality between boys and girls is
now much wider at the level of basic education. In many
countries the introduction of free primary education ledto a
significant increase in enrolment. This in particular enabled
access for girls, poor people, and other marginalizedgroups.
However, it also led to lower quality due to the limited
resources to meet the demand. Even where free secondary
education has been introduced, the lower enrolment and
retention of girls in secondaryeducationpersistinmostlow-
income countries, indicating that the lasting impact of low
quality and discrimination during primary education is
working as a barrier to transition (ECF, 2013; Tembon,
2008).
Distance to School and Gender Inequality in Access to
Education
According to De Jaenghere (2004) foundthatinAfrica lack of
formal secondary school in close proximity to girls’ homes
prohibits their participation. Similarly study by Coady and
Parker (2002) in Mexico had shown that distance to
secondary school had consistently large negative effect on
probability of enrolling in secondary school. The impact in
general was much larger for girls than boys in long journey
from home to school affect students particularly girls in
retention and completion of study circle. A study by Scharff,
(2007) in Malawi found that girlsweremorevulnerablethan
boys to abuse, both while in transit and when in school. To
avoid lengthy walk to school some girls make their own
lodging arrangement near communitydayschool thatdonot
offer boarding facilities (Scharff and Brady, 2006). Those
self-borders are unsupervised by the school and they fall in
risk of theft and self abuse. This results to gender gaps in
education especially in rural areas due high dropout rate by
girls.
Figure1. Gender parity for primary enrolment, 2012-2018
Gender and Education, (UNICEF, 2020)
Notes: Gender parity index on adjusted net enrolment rate is used as primary source, and where administrative data is not
available, household survey data is used.
Primary education is the basis for a lifetime of learning. Providing universal access and ensuring the completion of primary
education for all girls and boys is one of the main areas of concern listed in the Beijing Platform for Action adopted in 1995.
Since Subsequently, substantial progress has been made towards achieving universal primary education and narrowing the
gender gap in enrolment. More than two-thirds of countries have achieved gender parity (defined as having a gender parity
index of between 0.97 and 1.03) in enrolment in primary education, butincountriesthathavenotachievedparity, especiallyin
Africa, the Middle East and South Asia, girls are more likely to be disadvantaged than boys. In Chad and Pakistan, for example,
the GPI is 0.78 and 0.84, which means that 78 girls in Chad and 84 girls in Pakistan are enrolledinprimaryschool for every100
boys (UNICEF, 2020).
Figure 2 Out-of-school populations among children of primary school age (millions) by sex, 2000-2018
Gender and Education, (UNICEF, 2020)
International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (IJTSRD) @ www.ijtsrd.com eISSN: 2456-6470

Around 2000 and 2018, the number of primary school-age out-of-school girls declined by 44 percent globally, from57million
to 32 million. During this same time, boys saw a global decrease of 37 percent, from 42 million to 27 million. Despite this
development, some 59 million primary school-age children were out of school in 2018 (55% of whom were girls), with the
highest overall rates being observed in sub-Saharan Africa. While out-of-school girls worldwide are more likelytoneverenrol
in school than out-of-school boys, progress has stagnated for both girls and boys since 2007 in reducing the number of out-of-
school children, as increased access to primary education has barely kept pace with the growth of the global child population,
especially in sub-Saharan Africa (UNICEF, 2020).
Figure 3 Out-of-school rates among children of primary school age, by sex, 2018
Moreover, according to the report of UNICEF (2020) the
barriers that deter children from attending primary school
vary across and within countries but are often associated
with poverty, geographic remoteness, armed conflict,lack of
school infrastructure and poor-qualityeducation.Moreover,
these obstacles often interact with gender inequality to
intensify learning disadvantages for marginalized girls.
Interventions that address the high costs of education for
families, including the abolition of school fees, cash transfer
programs and school feeding programs, have demonstrated
success at reaching out-of-school children, whether applied
universally or targeted towards specificpopulations,suchas
rural girls. Village-based schoolstoshortenthedistancegirls
need to travel to attend school include additional steps to
meet the most vulnerable girls;' girl-friendly' schools with
separate latrines for boys and girls; gender-sensitive
teaching methods and flexible education options for girls
who have dropped out of school and want to return, such as
young mothers. However, more data are needed to
understand the precise impact of gender norms on the
likelihood of girls and boys being out of school, includingthe
relationship between decisions around child marriage, the
withdrawal of girls from school and perceptions of thevalue
of girls’ education versus boys’ education.
Meanwhile, results from the 2018 Programme for
International Student Assessment (PISA) of 15-year old
students reveal that girls performed better than boys in
reading literacy in every country participating in the
assessment. In comparison, in around 80% of the
participating countries, boys performed better than girls in
mathematics. In 38% and 55% of nations, respectively,
gender differences favoring boys and girls were found.
Although there has been a lot of controversy about the
variables that account for gender disparities in educational
achievement, emerging evidence of the importance of
positive gender socialization in all children, both at school
and at home, indicates that parents, teachers, and policy
makers may promote basic skills in reading, math, and
science.
Results and Discussions
Findings of this investigation have shown that although
gender equality in education is a fundamental right, there
are also some instances that gender inequality in education
do really exist in different countries. Results from the study
UNESCO (2020) this gender inequality is associatedwiththe
following factors: poverty, geographic remoteness, armed
conflict, lack of school infrastructure, and poor quality of
education. Moreover, beyondeducation-relateddeficiencies,
low-income children can experience inadequacies with
physical and cognitive development and disparities
regarding access to healthcareandtokeyresourcesthat help
ensure success. Furthermore, data show that low-income
students are five times more likely to drop out ofhighschool
than those who are high-income and 13 times less likely to
graduate from high school on time (Taylor, 2017). Another
factor that contributes to gender inequalityisthedistance or
geographical locations of the school which learners have
difficulties in reaching their schools. It is expected that boys
have capability to walk or reach their schools even if it’s in
the mountain, however, girls on the other hand, not all can
do the same. Further, armed conflict was also seenasfactors
that elevate the gender inequality in education, this entails
that terrorism, war and any unlikely behaviour in a country
does affect the way students pursue or learn in the school.
Next factor is the lack of school infrastructure, this entails
that poor country has significant gender inequality in
education, due to the lack of funding that enhance the
education and interest of the students. In fact, these notonly
affect the gender inequality in education, but rather affect
the whole system of education.Lastly,poorqualityeducation
contributes to the overall gender inequality in education.
Poor quality means different perceptions and quality of
learning. It affects how learners view the importance of
education in their future career. This makes a limitation to
the learners to strived hard and make their dreams a reality.
Overall, these factors does not only touch the gender
inequality in education but rather also crushed the whole
system of education.

Conclusion
Based on the findings of this study, different factors affects
were seen as contributors of gender inequality in education,
this includes poverty, geographical remoteness, armed
conflict, lack of school infrastructure and poor quality of
education. Although, the quality of education has
emphasized in the sustainable development goals, however,
it is also imminent that equality does exist due to the
identified factors that hinder gender quality in education.
Implication to Practice
This study suggests that our educational system with the
help of private sector should findinnovativewaystoaddress
these issues of gender inequality in education. We should
always remember that our young learners are our future
innovators and heroes, thus, without qualityeducationnone
of these would be achieved.

This paper identifies the factor that creates gender inequality in education and in the world in general. Our study focuses on the identified factors that elevate the existence of gender inequality in education. Based on the literature, recent studies and reports shows that there are 5 factors that contribute to the existence of gender inequality in education and these include poverty, geographical remoteness, armedconflict,lack ofschool infrastructure, and quality of education. The researchers strongly believed that our young learners are our future innovators and heroes, thus, without quality education; none of these would be achieved. The results suggest that our educational system needs to collaborate with the private sector and provide innovative measures to address these issues of gender inequality in education.

It'sbecause women have to deserve equal things as same as the men. Such as, education, rights, and privileges in the society. Women also can get a good education, and women also have a power to change the world, for giving an opinion, and sharing what they feel about something (Shaffa, 2019). According to the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights recognised the right to education, stating that education should be free and compulsoryforeverybody,and higher levels of education should be accessible to all (Santosh et al. 2011). On the one hand, education is seenasa human right that is essential in order to fulfil the rest of human rights and the overall world’sdevelopment(UNESCO 2016). Previous research by (Mesa, 2007; Mueller-Oppliger, 2014; Salinas & Suson, 2020; Aburayya et al., 2020a) has stated that the value of education is well-known and is widely acknowledged. Recognizing it as a crucial instrument in improving welfare and alleviating poverty,countriesall over the world have ranked it as a leading global concern. Equal access to education makes possible the social and economic mobility of the poor. By enhancing the skills of the underprivileged groups, education is an important factor in putting a stop to poverty’s virtuous cycle. Furthermore, education’s benefits extend beyond the individual level. Firms, industries and the economy as a whole also benefit from the improvement in the quality of human capital brought about by education. However, equality of access in education is often seen as being the crucial factor affecting gender based education. UNESCO (2016) claimed that large gender gaps exist in access, learning achievement and continuation in education in many settings. This has been used in several studies to assess the gender inequality in education. Results of the studies of (UNGEI, 2009; Gachukia, 2012; Aburayya et al., 2020c) found out that gender equality in education (GEE onwards) is crucial to progress towards poverty reduction, since it enables women and girls to become part of the labour market, increasing economic productivity, and empowering them to participate in the decision-making at a community level, as well as to improve family health and well-being by reducing the fertility rates and infant and maternal mortality.

International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (IJTSRD) @ www.ijtsrd.com eISSN: 2456-6470 @ IJTSRD | Unique Paper ID – IJTSRD33554 | Volume – 4 | Issue – 6 | September-October 2020 Page 890 Similarly, Bertocchi & Bozzan0 (2019) claimed that gender- based inequalities are a universal and pervasive characteristic of all societies, today and in history.Oneofthe most crucial dimensions in which gender differences manifest themselves is in human capital accumulation and its acquisition through education. In turn, gender gaps in education are among the mainfactorsthatdeterminegender disparities in a broad set of socioeconomic realms,including work, family, and public life. Moheyuddin (2005) argued that in the world in general and in the underdeveloped countries (UDCs) in particular, the women are inadequately served in terms of education, health, social status, opportunities and legal rights. Bista (2004) claimed that gender disparity in terms of participation, learning conditions and funding. Further, educational policies, acts and programs were not prepared in a gender sensitive manner. Thecurriculum,text materials, teacher training and examination practices did not favorite girls. Moreover, results shows that evidence from the study of these three countries Zimbabwe, Zambia and Malawi shows that boys and girls are enrolled almost at parity for primary school as a whole and yet educational outcomes for girls are still relatively poor (Bridge, 2019; Aburayya et al., 2019a). Finally, ensuring access to and improving the quality of education for girls and women, as well as removing all gender stereotyping and further obstacles which impede their active participation, was stated as the biggest priority at the world due to unhealthy demands on both sexes which inhibit their natural talents and interests from developing, and consequently limit economic progress and prevent social cohesion (UNGEI2009;Helsinki,2014;Aburayya et al., 2019b). Moreover, gender equality is a global priority for UNESCO and inextricably linked to its efforts to promotethe right to education and support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. Through the education 2030 framework for action, SGD 4 aims to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all’ and SDG 5 to ‘Achieve gender equality and empower all women andgirls’(UNESCO,2016). OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY While this division of inequalitiesof educationhascontinued to emerge, this study determines the existence of the factors that affect gender inequality in education in the perspective of global systematic review. METHODOLOGY This study employed a meta-analysts describe and explain previously reported statistical significant results that examine the same phenomenon. Therefore, in simplest terms, a meta-analysis is a statistical analysis of the survey findings of a large number of empirical studies (Zeng et al. 2014; Aburayya et al.,2020b).InMeta-analysis isa statistical technique, or set of statistical techniques, for summarising the results of several studies into a single estimate. Stanley (2001) noted that meta-analyses allow the evaluation of the effect of different data characteristics and methodologieson the results reported. REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE The literature relied on a wide variety of gender education initiatives, ranging from Person metrics for composite indices. According to Jakiela and Hars (2019) gender gaps narrowed in some places and widened in others. Gender gaps have developed in some low-education countries where they did not exist before, but disappeared or diminished elsewhere. UNESCO (2016) noted that poverty, geographical isolation, minority status, disability, early marriage and pregnancy, gender-based violence, and traditional attitudes about the status and role of women,are among the many obstacles that stand in the way of women and girls fully exercising their right to participate in, complete and benefit from education. Historical overview For several decades, differences between boys and girls in educational achievement have been the focus of scientific attention. In the seventies, the emphasis was on the low achievement of girls. Girls had lower scores and participation in science and mathematicswhencomparedto boys (Byrne 1978; Foster et al. 2001). Researchers posited several explanations for these findings, which could be divided into two categories. Firstly, girls were positioned within a ‘deficit framework’ (Foster et al. 2001; Hodgetts 2008). Their poor performances were attributed to a lack of certain qualities, such as low confidence, high anxiety and fear of success. Furthermore, girls’ tendency tobecompliant in class, work hard and hand in homework thatwasneatand on time, was taken as a sign of a passive, compliant and malleable learning style (Hodgetts 2008). This was contrasted with boys’ active and curious learning style, which would be focused on understanding rather than on achievement or teacher expectations. This way, girls’ attitudes and behaviour in school were taken to be a sign of an inferior learning style (Byrne 1978). Secondly, several researchers pointed to factors other than innate traits that impeded girls’ academic success. They suggested studying the impact of societal norms and expectations of gendered behaviour (Byrne1978;SkeltonandFrancis2011;Poligrates & Suson, 2020). For instance, research pointed out that textbooks lacked positive role models forgirls,andthatboys dominated the classroom and teacher attention. These researchers declared that it was therefore no surprise that girls would be less confident than boys. Policy recommendations based on this literature focused on changing learning material and raising teachers’ awareness of inequalities in their classroom management by letting girls answer questions as often as boys, debunking gender stereotypes concerning mathematics and science,andso on. Gender Inequality in Education Gender inequality in education as the process that treats people (men and women) are treated unequally in access and opportunity to educational matters. In this study, the term gender inequality will beusedtoimplysocial injustices, unfairness in distribution of resources and opportunities among men and women as these groups try to acquire education (Osongo, 2019; cited by Linda (2014)). Moreover, in many poor countries, women are educationally strongly disadvantaged, and this is clearly connected with sustained high fertility in many of these countries. In therichcountries of the West, the situation is very different. There, a major social development of the secondhalfofthe20thcenturyhas been the spectacular increase of participation in higher education in general, and participation by women in particular. In North America andEuropetoday,women excel men in terms of participation and success in higher education. However, research on the demographic

Impacts of gender inequality in Education There is strong relationship betweeninequalityineducation and poverty. The impact of poverty on a child’s academic achievement is significant and starts early, oung children growing up in poverty face challenges with cognitive and literary ability and [often] begins school both academically and socioeconomically behind their peers from higher- income backgrounds. In its 2016 report, The Condition of Education, the National Center for Education Statistics attributed living in povertyduring earlychildhood,inpart,to lower levels of academic performance “beginning in kindergarten and extending through elementary and high school” (Taylor, 2017). Despite global efforts to expand educational opportunities for women, gender inequalities persist in many developing countries (Osby et al., 2016). Systematic educational inequality between boys and girls is now much wider at the level of basic education. In many countries the introduction of free primary education ledto a significant increase in enrolment. This in particular enabled access for girls, poor people, and other marginalizedgroups. However, it also led to lower quality due to the limited resources to meet the demand. Even where free secondary education has been introduced, the lower enrolment and retention of girls in secondaryeducationpersistinmostlow- income countries, indicating that the lasting impact of low quality and discrimination during primary education is working as a barrier to transition (ECF, 2013; Tembon, 2008). Distance to School and Gender Inequality in Access to Education According to De Jaenghere (2004) foundthatinAfrica lack of formal secondary school in close proximity to girls’ homes prohibits their participation. Similarly study by Coady and Parker (2002) in Mexico had shown that distance to secondary school had consistently large negative effect on probability of enrolling in secondary school. The impact in general was much larger for girls than boys in long journey from home to school affect students particularly girls in retention and completion of study circle. A study by Scharff, (2007) in Malawi found that girlsweremorevulnerablethan boys to abuse, both while in transit and when in school. To avoid lengthy walk to school some girls make their own lodging arrangement near communitydayschool thatdonot offer boarding facilities (Scharff and Brady, 2006). Those self-borders are unsupervised by the school and they fall in risk of theft and self abuse. This results to gender gaps in education especially in rural areas due high dropout rate by girls. Figure1. Gender parity for primary enrolment, 2012-2018 Gender and Education, (UNICEF, 2020) Notes: Gender parity index on adjusted net enrolment rate is used as primary source, and where administrative data is not available, household survey data is used. Primary education is the basis for a lifetime of learning. Providing universal access and ensuring the completion of primary education for all girls and boys is one of the main areas of concern listed in the Beijing Platform for Action adopted in 1995. Since Subsequently, substantial progress has been made towards achieving universal primary education and narrowing the gender gap in enrolment. More than two-thirds of countries have achieved gender parity (defined as having a gender parity index of between 0.97 and 1.03) in enrolment in primary education, butincountriesthathavenotachievedparity, especiallyin Africa, the Middle East and South Asia, girls are more likely to be disadvantaged than boys. In Chad and Pakistan, for example, the GPI is 0.78 and 0.84, which means that 78 girls in Chad and 84 girls in Pakistan are enrolledinprimaryschool for every100 boys (UNICEF, 2020).

International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (IJTSRD) @ www.ijtsrd.com eISSN: 2456-6470 @ IJTSRD | Unique Paper ID – IJTSRD33554 | Volume – 4 | Issue – 6 | September-October 2020 Page 892 Around 2000 and 2018, the number of primary school-age out-of-school girls declined by 44 percent globally, from57million to 32 million. During this same time, boys saw a global decrease of 37 percent, from 42 million to 27 million. Despite this development, some 59 million primary school-age children were out of school in 2018 (55% of whom were girls), with the highest overall rates being observed in sub-Saharan Africa. While out-of-school girls worldwide are more likelytoneverenrol in school than out-of-school boys, progress has stagnated for both girls and boys since 2007 in reducing the number of out-of- school children, as increased access to primary education has barely kept pace with the growth of the global child population, especially in sub-Saharan Africa (UNICEF, 2020). Figure 3 Out-of-school rates among children of primary school age, by sex, 2018 Moreover, according to the report of UNICEF (2020) the barriers that deter children from attending primary school vary across and within countries but are often associated with poverty, geographic remoteness, armed conflict,lack of school infrastructure and poor-qualityeducation.Moreover, these obstacles often interact with gender inequality to intensify learning disadvantages for marginalized girls. Interventions that address the high costs of education for families, including the abolition of school fees, cash transfer programs and school feeding programs, have demonstrated success at reaching out-of-school children, whether applied universally or targeted towards specificpopulations,suchas rural girls. Village-based schoolstoshortenthedistancegirls need to travel to attend school include additional steps to meet the most vulnerable girls;' girl-friendly' schools with separate latrines for boys and girls; gender-sensitive teaching methods and flexible education options for girls who have dropped out of school and want to return, such as young mothers. However, more data are needed to understand the precise impact of gender norms on the likelihood of girls and boys being out of school, includingthe relationship between decisions around child marriage, the withdrawal of girls from school and perceptions of thevalue of girls’ education versus boys’ education. Meanwhile, results from the 2018 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) of 15-year old students reveal that girls performed better than boys in reading literacy in every country participating in the assessment. In comparison, in around 80% of the participating countries, boys performed better than girls in mathematics. In 38% and 55% of nations, respectively, gender differences favoring boys and girls were found. Although there has been a lot of controversy about the variables that account for gender disparities in educational achievement, emerging evidence of the importance of positive gender socialization in all children, both at school and at home, indicates that parents, teachers, and policy makers may promote basic skills in reading, math, and science. Results and Discussions Findings of this investigation have shown that although gender equality in education is a fundamental right, there are also some instances that gender inequality in education do really exist in different countries. Results from the study UNESCO (2020) this gender inequality is associatedwiththe following factors: poverty, geographic remoteness, armed conflict, lack of school infrastructure, and poor quality of education. Moreover, beyondeducation-relateddeficiencies, low-income children can experience inadequacies with physical and cognitive development and disparities regarding access to healthcareandtokeyresourcesthat help ensure success. Furthermore, data show that low-income students are five times more likely to drop out ofhighschool than those who are high-income and 13 times less likely to graduate from high school on time (Taylor, 2017). Another factor that contributes to gender inequalityisthedistance or geographical locations of the school which learners have difficulties in reaching their schools. It is expected that boys have capability to walk or reach their schools even if it’s in the mountain, however, girls on the other hand, not all can do the same. Further, armed conflict was also seenasfactors that elevate the gender inequality in education, this entails that terrorism, war and any unlikely behaviour in a country does affect the way students pursue or learn in the school. Next factor is the lack of school infrastructure, this entails that poor country has significant gender inequality in education, due to the lack of funding that enhance the education and interest of the students. In fact, these notonly affect the gender inequality in education, but rather affect the whole system of education.Lastly,poorqualityeducation contributes to the overall gender inequality in education. Poor quality means different perceptions and quality of learning. It affects how learners view the importance of education in their future career. This makes a limitation to the learners to strived hard and make their dreams a reality. Overall, these factors does not only touch the gender inequality in education but rather also crushed the whole system of education.

Although, the quality of education has emphasized in the sustainable development goals, however, it is also imminent that equality does exist due to the identified factors that hinder gender quality in education. Implication to Practice This study suggests that our educational system with the help of private sector should findinnovativewaystoaddress these issues of gender inequality in education. We should always remember that our young learners are our future innovators and heroes, thus, without qualityeducationnone of these would be achieved.
