Hairdresser or Footballer: Bridging the gender gap in schools

Hairdresser or Footballer: Bridging the gender gap in schools

by RossMorrisonMcGill (Author), HollieAnderton (Author)

Synopsis

Teaching is a profession where we are persistently trying to ensure that our children have the best possible future, yet gender is still a huge hurdle in terms of expectations. We are setting children up to fail because society instills certain messages in them that can often stop them from achieving what they desire and as teachers, we aren't always opposing them. Often, teachers are so removed from this issue that they don't see it going on in their classroom.
