=======================================================

The line chart provides a breakdown regarding the growth of pupils graduated in Canada based on gender over a 15-year period between 1992 and 2007.

Overall, even though the number of female student graduated was always higher than the number of men, the increasing trends of both groups of students seems as likely to be similar. Interestingly, the gap between the number of women and men was wider and wider which female were 32% higher than man in the beginning and 52% at the end of period.

According to the given information, both student groups experienced a gradual increase from 1992 to 1995. In 2000, this growth continued up to 145000 (female) and 95000 (male), on average till the end of the period after facing a slight decrease in a next 5-year period after 1995, then flattened out at just over 70000 for male and 100000 for female. This was well above the increases that had been seen in the 1990s.

You follow a good structure :)

The line chart provides a breakdown regarding the growth of pupils graduated in Canada based on gender over a 15-year period between 1992 and 2007.

Actually , growth is an inference from the graph. In the introduction, simply say what the graph presents;
The line graph provides information about male and female graduates in Canada from 1992 to 2007.

Overall, even though the number of female student graduated was always higher than the number of men, the increasing trends of both groups of students seems as likely to be similar. Interestingly, the gap between the number of women and men was wider and wider which female were 32% higher than man in the beginning and 52% at the end of period.

Overview should not contain data and details. They should move into the body paras(detailed paras) Here you should give the most obvious trend/ trends very briefly. For example;

Overall, both male and female graduates have grown in their numbers and the number of female graduates have always been higher than male graduates throughout the period under review.

You follow a good structure :)

Yes, you follow the basic outline of the most appropriate structure (Intro, Overview and Details), but you need to have a better understanding about how each section should be presented.

According to the given information, both student groups experienced a gradual increase from 1992 to 1995.

I'm afraid of the usage of "According to the given information" will lead your reader to conclude that the information provided in your previous paragraph is not based on the chart.
