A Future for our boys

[Labarum]

This BBC Article looks again at how traditional education is failing boys.

But not all boys. Most of the highest performers in Maths, the Physical Sciences and Engineering are the boys - at A level (University Entrance Exams) and at BSC/MSc level.

And in the United Kingdom there is often a marked difference between boy's performance in State Schools and Independent Schools (Fee paying Schools)

Comments from both sides of the Atlantic, please.

Re: A Future for our boys

Well as a Homeschooling Mom.. I say our whole education system is flawed. Especially with the boys. I don't blame the teachers at all. They do the best that they can. We need smaller classrooms...lower Student to Teacher ratio's.
