Final report
Publication metadata
The aim of this study was to provide insight into why boys and young men are increasingly falling behind in education and the consequences that this lack of educational success has on society. The study also sought to highlight initiatives that may have the potential to prevent this trend from escalating further. The specific requirements of the study, as set out in the tender specifications were: 1. to conduct a mapping of countries based on desk research covering all 27 EU Member States to see the impact of gender on learning outcomes in primary and secondary education; 2. to carry out a more in-depth analysis using primary research in Member States representing different geographical areas of the EU; 3. to conduct an analysis of the findings (e.g. “what are the current initiatives?”) in view of offering policy recommendations (e.g. “which measures should Member States put into place to prevent further escalation of the challenge?”).
