What this measures
Secondary general pupils are the number of secondary students enrolled in general education programs, including teacher training.
Limitations: The percentage of female enrollment is limited in assessing gender parity, because it's affected by the gender composition of population. Ratio of female to male in enrollment rate provides a population adjusted measure of gender parity.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average.
