With the ever increasing and irrefutable need for the education of boys to be improved, the schools inspectorate Ofsted have launched a report on what they feel needs to be done to help boys from low incomes. Years of the feminisiation of education have wrought havoc and failed a whole generation of boys, now work has to be done to stop the next generation of boys suffering.
The report looks at approaches that work such as building confidence, self-esteem and personalising education.
The report can be found here (link).
A great web-site called Boys Into Books (link) lists the sorts of books that boys should be reading and to help them get engaged. A very worthwhile project.
