Boys In Schools: Addressing The Real Issues - Behaviour, Values and Relationships.

Many schools today face serious, daily problems with boys’ behaviour and attitudes that reduce the quality of education for boys and girls. The need for boys to change is crucial – but how can it be done? This book presents accounts which show how innovative approaches used in schools can change the way boys view themselves and others.

The book addresses difficulties associated with bullying, school violence, boys’ under-achievement, homophobia, sexism, boys’ non-involvement in school life, relationships, peer culture, masculinity, gender stereotypes, identity and self-esteem.

This is an important book for teachers, parents, educationists and all those who work with and care for boys.
