Gender stereotyping
Gender stereotyping
One of the key aims of careers education and IAG is to help young people to challenge stereotyping and other barriers to choice and opportunity. Connexions Greater Merseyside has developed a set of activities for Key Stage 3 and 4 students to raise their awareness of the negative consequences of gender stereotyping and how they can develop strategies to challenge gender-based discrimination . The careers education support programme would like to thank Connexions Greater Merseyside for making these resources available on cegnet.
Challenging Gender Stereotypes (KS3)
Students will be able to define what gender stereotyping is and what effect this may have on their own career choice. They will explore the concept of stereotypes and look at examples of how it operates in practice.
