Schools are systematically predicting lower A-level grades for boys compared with girls who go on to get the same results.

There's been a lack of emphasis to cater education to boys and their needs.

Something must B done to widen this gap because women have far less opportunities in the work force /s

Boys get worse grades when subjectively graded by largely female teachers but do equally well on objective standardized tests. I wonder what could cause that difference?

What amazes me is how few parents speak out about the documented discrimination their sons face in education.

This doesn’t get enough attention.

If you were to break this down by gender you would find the female teachers are the most biased against boys, as found in prior studies.

They did the same thing for IQ tests btw.

As someone who genuinely tried their hardest inside the school system to succeed it's so crazy to see stuff like this because as a society we have put a heavy finger on the scale of success tilted towards women and yet reading something like this just validates my lived experience that it really is like this and I'm not imagining it. Gender equality and feminism are not the same it's a supremacy movement

Education is just social engineering, the longer you are in it the more you realise it's a stacked game. The dice are loaded for some
