This book argues that educators and the general public have become complacent about girlsâ€™ education as a consequence of the more recent fuss about problems for boys. After an analysis of persistent Â disquiet about girlsâ€™ lifestyles, it uses theories of gender and education to demonstrate that girls are being produced in contradictory ways in current schooling. Many girls develop a Â sense of themselves through close connection with friendship groups but schooling processes typically require them to adopt the position of competitors in the end-of-school rankings and to act out their individualized positions in imagining themselves into the future. Ultimately the work offers insight and understanding leading to a less divisive educational pathway for girls.
