What the numbers say

In 2024, Monaco's secondary education, teachers, female rose 12% on 2023 (from 258 to 289).

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 12% in 2024 and the biggest yearly fall was 8.5% in 1997. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 5.17 a year. A straight line explains 72% of the movement over 9 observed years.
