Gross Enrollment Ratio(GER) represents the ratio between the students enrolled in a particular level of education and the total number of population of the school age children or students.
Explanation:
If the GER value reaches or surpasses 100,it implies that some under-aged or over-aged students have been inserted into a specific level of education.In many cases,early and late admissions and repetition of any particular standard or class can lead to the inclusion of under and over aged students in a particular level of education.In general a GER value of 100 basically means that it has been possible to accommodate all the students within a specific age group at a particular level of education,however,it does not indicate that the percentage of students that are already admitted or enrolled.
