Boys in Schools contains positive accounts of innovative approaches to help boys’ learning and their understanding of relationships. Fifteen prominent educators show how these can change the way boys view themselves and others if used in schools.
Issues addressed include bullying, school violence, boys’ under-achievement and non-involvement in school life, relationships, peer culture, masculinity, and self-esteem.
Richard Fletcher, from the University of Newcastle, is an educator and a leading advocate for boys’ education. Rollo Browne is a consultant to schools on boys’ education.
