ayon sa opisyal na pahayag ng PSA, bata sa Poverty Indicators Survey.


Kung tungkol sa kasarian, higit na marami ang mga lalaking wala sa paaralan, kaysa babae
dahil sa pagtatrabaho (25.9%), o dahil sa kawalan ng interes (17.9%).


Pero mas maraming babae kaysa lalaki ang hindi nag-aaral dahil sila’y nakapagtapos na ng
kurso (28.9%) o dahil sa pag-aasawa (17%).
