Summary Note
This is the first of a series of four themed reports on women in New South Wales that will be released annually. This report presents a range of indicators relating to girlsâ and womenâs experiences with education and learning. It brings data together from various sources across Government and provides a gender-based approach to highlighting where inequalities exist, and where advancements are being made. The report commences with a snapshot of early childhood and primary school education. From a young age we see variances between boys and girls in NAPLAN results, with girls consistently outperforming boys in reading, and boys consistently stronger in numeracy. A similar theme is evident in studentsâ secondary school course enrolments, with girls tending towards English and humanities, in contrast to boys' preferences for maths and sciences. More women than men continue to complete secondary school and progress to tertiary education. However, consistent with previous years, more boys enter into apprenticeships and traineeships. Women graduates on average continue to earn less than men but the gender gap in graduate salaries is decreasing. [Foreword, ed]
