Summary: | For many teachers, gender issues related to role models, image and expectations have an effect upon the behaviour and achievement of both boys and girls, often to their disadvantage. <p>This innovative and practical resource, for teachers of students aged 14-19provides:</p> <p>o a programme to promote gender equality and inclusivity in schools and colleges</p> <p>o a rationale for the programme based on social justice</p> <p>o a practical set of classroom activities to implement the programme</p> <p>The book adopts an ′action inquiry′ methodology - engaging students and staff in the processes of investigating what is currently happening, and planning, implementing and reviewing improvements. This contributes to the development of the school or college as a self-evaluating organisation which listens to the voice of the young person.</p> <p>The programme also supports teachers and other school staff in developing as reflective practitioners, and children and young people in developing as reflective learners.</p> <p>′A real strength of the resource is the inclusion of practical activities that have been carefully designed for pupils. These are excellent and lend themselves for use in a variety of ways. This is a thoroughly recommended resource.′ - SENCO Update </p> |
