Gender and School Gender and School

Socialization is the process through which people learn and acquire the characteristics of the social group to which they belong. The socialization of the individuals enables the preservation and sustainability of the characteristics, values and social norms because these are taught and transmitted from on generation to another. Socialization 01

Socialization in School 02 Schools play a crucial role in socializing students by transmitting societal expectations about gender roles. This process impact both boys and girls, shaping how they perceive their abilities and place in society.

Peers also contribute to gender shaping gender attitudes through interaction, with children often adopting the behaviors and attitudes of the those around them. Teachers significantly influence how students view gender, often unintentionally promoting stereotypes. For example, they might encourage boys to be assertive and girls to be nurturing. Role of Teachers and Peers 03

01 It’s not only about members. Gender equality in schools is not only about equal members of girls and boys in classrooms, it is also about equal opportunities and avenues available to both resulting in equal participation and achievements. How can Schools maintain Gender Equality 04 03 Integrating life skills and gender equality. Age relevant gender and life skills orientation for both girls and boys helps in building emotional resilience, emotional intelligence, decision making, mutual respect, assertive skills and leadership skills. 02 Gender role stereotyping. Schools should avoid negative gender role stereotyping in any form and should promote both girls and boys for all types of sports, vocational courses and subjects.

Safe and Security. Schools need to promote and nurture safe and secured environment especially for girls so that they can exercise their constitutional right to education. How can Schools maintain Gender Equality 05 Gender equitable print rich environment in school. Recognizing, promoting and displaying the contribution of both women and men in nation-building, art, culture, science, sports and various fields by means of equal display of pictures and information on both women and men achievers and contributions. This also helps girls in understanding that there are women role models at par in our society and that girls should also dream big and achieve high.

Gender responsive textbooks and libraries . Parity in the number of books on women and men achievers and on themes around positive gender roles should make up the library. Schools can do a ‘gender audit’ of their libraries to see how they promote gender equality through books. Textbooks should be reviewed from a gender lens to ensure that they promote positive gender role and messages of equality and mutual respect. Teachers are the torch bearers of gender equality. Teachers should promote equal participation and motivation of boys and girls in classroom activities, raising personal aspiration for a career among girls and their parents. Developing and nurturing leadership and initiative among children, especially girls so that they can prevent gender-based violence and promote gender equality in their own lives. How can Schools maintain Gender Equality 06

Governments, schools, teachers, and students must work together to ensure a non-violent, discrimination-free, gender-sensitive education system. Reading 1 Gender Equality through School: Providing a Safe and Inclusive Learning Environment 07 Governments should promote nondiscriminatory curricula and teacher education, while schools should address violence and provide comprehensive health education. Teachers are encouraged to use unbiased, professional methods, and students should practice inclusive, non-violent behavior.

01 School-related violence includes physical, psychological, and sexual violence, bullying, and abuse, often driven by gender norms and unequal power dynamics. National and school policies should target School-Related Violence 08 03 Teacher codes of conduct are essential but often lack enforcement or dissemination, highlighting the need for stronger regulations and monitoring. 02 Various countries like Chile, Fiji, South Africa, and Tanzania struggle with teacher-student abuse, but some have adopted legislative measures to combat violence in schools.

Inadequate sanitation during menstruation can negatively affect girls' school attendance. Regulations in countries like Bangladesh show a gap between policy and implementation, as many schools lack proper facilities. Gender-sensitive Facilities can increase the time girls spend in School 09 Gender-separate sanitation facilities increase girls' school participation, but only 61% of educational systems worldwide mandate them, reflecting poor implementation and insufficient inspections in developing countries.

Unbiased curricula and textbooks are critical for shaping gender perceptions. In some countries, textbooks still present stereotypical gender roles. Countries like Cuba, Estonia, and Finland have integrated gender equality in their school curricula, but there is still a long way to go in reducing gender bias in educational materials worldwide. Gender equality in education requires Unbiased Curricula and Textbooks 10

Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) helps equip students with knowledge about gender, relationships, and human rights. Programs focused on gender equality are proven to be more effective at reducing sexually transmitted infections and unintended pregnancies. Implementation challenges exist due to lack of well-trained teachers, poor resources, and opposition from conservative groups, as seen in countries like Ghana and Kenya. Comprehensive Sexuality Education 11

Textbooks increasingly cover gender issues but progress is Insufficient 12 Teachers' assumptions about gender influence their classroom practices. Teacher education can help address underlying biases. While some countries, like Uganda and Nigeria, have teacher education programs that focus on gender equality, implementation is often weak, and progress is slow due to cultural barriers and lack of professional development.

01 Behavioral Discrimination This occurs when teachers treat boys and girls differently based on their behavior. Boys are often encouraged to be more vocal, active, and assertive, while girls are expected to be quiet, compliant, and neat. Boys may receive more praise for participation and creativity, whereas girls are praised for following rules and maintaining order. Reading 2 3 Signs of Gender Discrimination in the Classroom You Need to Know 13 03 Development Discrimination This refers to the differences in access to resources, opportunities, and encouragement that affect the academic development of boys and girls. Boys may have greater access to technology and leadership roles, while girls might be overlooked in areas of critical thinking and problem-solving. 02 Achievement Discrimination In this form of discrimination, academic expectations and achievements are often judged based on gender. For instance, boys may be encouraged or expected to excel in subjects like math and science, while girls are pushed towards subjects like language arts.
