BOYS' EDUCATION  

The poor results and lack success of boys in the British education system is an area of great concern.

Since the introduction of GCSEs (course based rather than exam-based learning), the performance of boys as opposed to girls has greatly fallen.

The government and local authorities who run education have failed to take the issue of education under-achievement seriously.

Boys learn differently from girls, yet, in the one size-fits-all system in the UK, the educational needs of girls have been met yet the needS of boys have not.

The lack of education creates problems within society for men who cannot get the skills they need to make a contribution to society, their families and themselves.
The current statistics show the plight that boys face.

The ManKind Initiative supports organisations that are campaigning for improvement in boys’ education:
