Introduction: Letting girls learn -- Becoming safe -- Becoming feminist -- Becoming achievement oriented -- The limits of confidence and the problem with achievement -- Conclusion: Letting all students learn.
Summary:
This bold and necessary book points out a simple and overlooked truth: most schools never had girls in mind to begin with. That is why the world needs what Sally Nuamah calls feminist schools, deliberately designed to provide girls with achievement-oriented identities. And she shows why doing so would help all students, regardless of their gender.-- Provided by publisher.
