Description
This Routledge book addresses the growing educational concern that boys are underperforming in literacy compared to girls. The author, Trisha Maynard, draws on extensive qualitative research to identify the key factors behind this achievement gap and presents evidence-based strategies for improvement. The work features in-depth case study findings from a primary school where staff implemented initiatives to enhance boys' attitudes towards literacy and boost their writing attainment. By examining the specific challenges boys face with written language development, this book provides educators, parents and policy makers with practical insights and actionable solutions grounded in real classroom experience. It bridges theory and practice, offering a comprehensive exploration of why this literacy divide exists and how schools can successfully narrow it through targeted interventions and sustained commitment to boys' learning outcomes.
