Indices of gender parity (IPG=F/M) and net coverage indicators for preschool, basic, and secondary education, disaggregated by gender and Certified Territorial Entity (ETC). The data covers the years 2020 and 2021, as indicated by the ANNO_INF column. It is hosted by the Colombian open data portal, www.datos.gov.co.
Use Cases
- Calculate gender parity indices (IPG) for different education levels (e.g., IPG_CNETA_SEC, IPG_CNETA_PREJ) across territorial entities (ETC, Departamento).
- Analyze net enrollment coverage by gender and age group (e.g., COBERTURA_NETA_FEM_SEC, Muj_6a10, Hom_15y16) for specific regions (CódigoDepartamento).
- Compare male and female matriculation counts (e.g., MATR_CN_FEM_PRIM, MATR_CN_MASC_MEDIA) across preschool, primary, secondary, and transitional levels.
- Assess demographic distributions within the education system using age and gender columns (e.g., Muj_3y4, Hom_5, Muj_11a14).
Strengths
- Data is disaggregated by gender, education level, and specific territorial entity (ETC).
- Includes calculated parity indices (IPG) alongside raw matriculation and coverage counts.
- Covers two recent academic years (2020 and 2021).
Limitations
- Row count and total data size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
