Unemployment rates are higher, particularly among Arab women (22.7% compared with the national average of 13.1%). The enrolments of the Galilee colleges remain largely Jewish, ranging from 65% to 70% at Gordon College of Education and Western Galilee College to more than 90% at ORT Braude. The low enrolment rates of Arabs can be attributed to the limited supply of relevant places, poor geographical accessibility to higher education, poor preparation at the primary and secondary education level due to underinvestment in Arab schools, insufficient language skills and lower rates of return to education for Arab population.
