Breaking Through Barriers to Boys Achievement
It is, sadly, a fact that boys don’t do as well as girls at school. There is no logical reason for this, of course, it is not as if boys are innately more stupid than girls, more of a case that many boys don’t perform as well for a number of reasons. This book aims to change all that by examining research findings and providing strategies to help teachers.
Raising Boys’ Achievement
Based on sound research and experience by leading author Gary Wilson, this “Pocket PAL” provides an introduction to why boys underachieve along with a practical toolkit of proven strategies to help raise boys’ attainment across all age boundaries, enabling every teacher, department, key stage or school to identify the problems and plan a way forward.
Help Your Boys Succeed
This highly practical book contains strong messages about the need to develop independence in boys, the importance of male role models within the family and what to look out for in school, including signs of peer pressure and limiting negative self beliefs. It gives advice on how best to support boys in their learning and in developing self esteem.
Roger Slee was Routledge author of the month in October 2011. Professor Roger Slee, Chair of Inclusive Education at the Institute of Education, was Routledge’s October author of the month. He is the founding editor of the International Journal of Inclusive Education and the editor in chief of the London Review of Education. He serves on the editorial boards of a number of other journals including Disability & Society, Critical Studies in Education, British Journal of Studies in Education and Educational Research.
Slee’s association with Routledge started with “Is there a desk with my name on it?” (Falmer Press, 1993). His newest endeavour is “The Irregular School”, published 2010.
In 2000 he took up the position of the Deputy Director General of Education in Queensland. At first hand, he would experience the struggles of school reform and attempting to establish exclusive education as an educational aspiration and strategy. The Irregular School suggests that conceptions of regular and special education drag us backwards and that inclusive education is in serious danger of subverting reform and supporting exclusion.
Currently he is working on projects with Iraqi academics, some of whom are in forced exile while others are struggling to rebuild a culture of research in the higher education sector in Iraq.
