Reading this plate
92 per 100 nationally. Nine districts are above parity: Brahmanbaria, Chandpur, Cumilla, Habiganj, Kishoreganj, Madaripur, Moulvibazar, Shariatpur and Sunamganj. The ratio tracks male out-migration and not enrolment alone. It correlates +0.67 with the share of households receiving remittances and -0.59 with the district sex ratio, so read it as who is present to study, not only who is sent to school.
