The research in this category delves into the role of gender socialization in shaping educational experiences, particularly in primary school settings. It highlights significant gender differences in teacher attitudes and expectations, exploring how these biases influence classroom interactions and reinforce traditional gender roles. The work emphasizes the need for greater gender awareness and targeted interventions to promote equity in educational environments.
