Percentages of home schooled students

Sample Answer 1

The table presents data on the percentages of pupils who got their education at home in a few countries for a span of 5 years, commencing from 1999. As is obvious, the percentages of students who received home education gradually increased except for grade 1 to 4 in 2000.

As can be seen from the given information, about 9% students in some countries went through homeschooling in 1999. Among them, the highest percentage (2.4%) were kindergarten children. All other students who were taught at home from grade 1 to grade 8 were classified in four categories. The ratio of homeschooled children in kindergarten slightly increased in every year and reached to 2.9% in 2004. The ratio of homeschooled pupils from grade 1 to grade 2 was 1.5% in 1999 which was exactly the same as it was for grade 5-6 students. Similarly, 1.6% students, both in grade 3 to 4 and grade 7-8 got homeschooling and this ratio showed an upward trend in 5 years’ time. While almost 1 out of 11 students in 1999 received education at home, this ratio became 1 out of 8 in 2004.
