    Indigenous female students in Guatemala have generally performed better in education and literacy than indigenous male students. A study found that while indigenous female enrollment rates were higher in rural areas, their educational opportunities were more limited and they had higher dropout rates. Indigenous males achieved higher grade levels before age 10 despite lower enrollment numbers overall. The Philippine Department of Education has committed to developing alternative learning systems tailored for indigenous communities, with curricula focusing on their culture and materials in their native languages. These programs aim to improve access to education for indigenous peoples affected by their remote locations and socioeconomic challenges.

    INE as cited in Hallman, Peracca, Catino and Ruiz (n.d.)(2018) mentioned that there is a
    disparity in the education and literacy among female and male IP students in Guatemala,
    with female students performing better compared to the male students. Hallman et al (n.d.)
    in their investigation of students in Guatemala found that educational opportunity for the
    indigenous females in the rural areas were less benefited by them. Enrolment rates for
    these groups are minimal and with higher drop outs rate. Indigenous males showed high
    grade level achievement before reaching 10 years old even though in terms of enrolment
    population, females are greater in number. By age 10 both gender achieved same grade
    level. Gabriel (2018) emphasized the Department of Education’s commitment to implement
    the Millennium Development Plan and Education for All Goals (EGA) of the government.
    Through the Schools Division of Bataan, in consultation of the Ayta elders, specific lesson
    plan and educational instructions and materials were designed for the IP children’s
    education. The progress of these students were documented, especially those that are
    related to their languages and culture. These are called “Alternative Learning Systems” in
    the form of curricula that focus on IP culture, course materials and tools and other
    assessments to determine the effectiveness of the instruction on the learning’s of these
    marginalized people at the community level. The Education for All (EFA) addresses the
    concerns of these IP people who are not able to avail of the educational services due to
    their location, poverty and other socio-economic factors.
