Abstract
At some point, any national conversation about how to improve education will turn to the question of gender, with most of the focus being on the challenges that girls face at school. Tia Linda Zuze and Vijay Reddy explore issues of gender and schooling more deeply. There is a view that boys and girls have been treated differently in the past. But is this an accurate reflection of the current reality? And in our pursuit for greater opportunities for girls, have we inadvertently neglected the risk factors that boys may face?-
