As issues of gender reform in the school system come to the forefront in popular media, stories of how girls have benefited at the expense of boys have become a common lament. Statistics such as how poorly boys perform on exams as compared to girls are often cited, as well as the cost of programs developed to support girls. Masculinity Goes To School gives a balanced overview of the issues surrounding boys and education. With in-depth analyses of how popular constructions of masculinity affect all aspects of a boy's life, the authors examine what is really happening with boys in the school system.

Masculinity Goes to School (Routledge Library Editions: Education and Gender)

Originally published in 1998. This book offers a balanced overview of the issues surrounding boys and education. It looks beyond the often hysterical debate in the popular media to analyse what is happening with boys in the school system and how this can be understood. The authors argue that popular constructions of masculinity affect boys in all parts of their lives: in families, peer groups and work cultures – at home, at school, at work and at leisure. Offering insight into key issues such as literacy, sport, bad behaviour, sexuality, race and ethnicity, and popular culture, this book also looks at programs and approaches to working with boys which have been successful.
