classification / class
Explanation:
This would have a list of the classes underneath it in the column. Classes could be e.g. Boys/Girls as in your example, scores on a test <10%, 10 - 19, 20 - 29, ... 80 - 89, 90 - 100 (or any other classification system).

In a frequency table, the next column will have the number of items in this class.
