What are the causes for not having equal education?
Gender
Girls are destined to stay at home and work, while the privilege is given to males to receive an education and work
In sub-Saharan Africa over 12 million girls are at risk of never receiving an education.
Some countries such as Afghanistan and Somalia are making no effort to reduce this gap between males and females
Girls make up more than 54% of the non-schooled population in the world
Beijing Platform for Action Act adopted in 1995, aiming to achieve equal education for both males and females.
Women account for ⅔ of the 750 million adults who lack basic literacy skills

Ethnicity
Black students are underrepresented in higher level classes
African American students are often located at schools with less qualified teachers
Black boys accounted for 16 percent of students at alternative schools, but only 8 percent of students at regular public schools in 2015-16.
about 39% of students suspended from school were Black—an overrepresentation of about 23 percentage points
Research shows that teachers have systematic bias in expectations for students of color
Students of color spend less time in the classroom due to being more likely to have been disciplined

Length of the commute to school
Extreme weather conditions
Possibility of conflict/ conflict
Population distribution
No schools in the area
Quality of education in the area (is it an area of poverty?)
Developing Countries
educational poverty (less than 4 years of school)
Extreme educational poverty (less than 2 years of school)
Central and Eastern Asia, as well as the Pacific, are also severely affected by this problem with more than 27 million uneducated children.
