Engaging Boys

This online module is CPD Accredited with the CPD Accreditation Service.

All children have their own characteristics, interests and ways of learning and developing and it is important to have high aspirations for both girls and boys.

Girls continue to out-perform boys at all levels of education.

This course has been written to give an insight into the differences between girls and boys and why it is important to look at how we approach engaging and supporting boys to enable them to reach their full potential.
