Closing the Gender Gap

Closing the Gender Gap

Postwar Education and Social Change

Madeleine Arnot

About this book

"The education gender gap is closing. Since the 1980s examination results have changed dramatically, as girls have 'caught up' with and, in some cases, overtaken boys. Through an analysis of the postwar transformation in British economic, social and cultural life, this book provides valuable insights into how and why this unprecedented change has taken place."--BOOK JACKET. "Closing the Gender Gap will be essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students in education, sociology and gender studies."--Jacket.
