Girls and Exclusion: Rethinking the Agenda
Autor Audrey Osler, Kerry Vincenten Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 mai 2003
This book demonstrates how the social and educational needs of girls and young women have slipped down the policy agenda in the UK and internationally. Osler and Vincent argue for a re-definition of school exclusion which covers the types of exclusion commonly experienced by girls, such as truancy, self-exclusion or school dropout as a result of pregnancy.
Drawing on girls' own ideas, the authors make recommendations as to how schools might develop as more inclusive communities where the needs of both boys and girls are addressed equally.
The book is essential reading for postgraduate students, teachers, policy-makers and LEA staff dedicated to genuine social and educational inclusion.

Descriere
The widespread view that girls are 'not a problem' is a myth. By drawing on girls' own accounts of school life and their perceptions of exclusion, this books offers startling new perspectives on the issue of disaffection amongst girls.
