This inequality exists despite increasing evidence that gender-class leadership is correlated with better learning consequences and more competent school environment. There is a similar story at higher education level. While 45% of higher education faculties are included in women, they are responsible for only 30% of the leadership roles in universities and colleges.India is no exception to this incident. While women dominate the teaching workforce in primary schools – accounting for more than 60% of primary teachers – their number leads to a rapid decline in leadership posts, especially at secondary and tertiary levels.The report also investigated political leadership in the education sector. Between 2010 and 2023, only 27% of the education ministers worldwide were women.
