The article presents the main results of the gender analysis of the educational sphere in Kirovohrad region. the gender parity index was used as the main statistical indicator of gender analysis. It was calculated by the UNESCO method as the ratio of the number of females to the number of males.
The quantitative and qualitative data analysis revealed the existence of the gender parity at the level of access to education among people of different gender in Kirovohrad region. The comparison of gender parity indices among individuals who gained vocational education during 1995-2016 and indices of persons acquired higher education during the same period indicates the existence of horizontal asymmetry in the educational sphere of these levels. Male students dominated at vocational schools and female students dominated at higher educational institutions of the I-IV accreditation level. Also the interdisciplinary horizontal asymmetry can be clearly seen in higher education. This fact revealed that technical, construction and engineering specialties enumerated more male students, while training in Social Sciences, the Humanities, Education and Health Care was presented mostly by female students. The comparison of gender parity indicators of the students of Pedagogical University and corresponding indicators of subject teachers shows the tendency of significant feminization of the teaching profession.
