The question
To ask the Scottish Government what measures it plans to implement to provide visible and strong leadership through the Gender Equality Taskforce in Education and Learning (GETEL) to achieve a gender-competent experience of education and learning for all girls.
The answer
The Gender Equality Taskforce in Education and Learning contains representation from gender competent leaders, who were instrumental in developing ambitions for the Taskforce, which will result in girls and young women having a gender equal experience of education.As outlined in its Theory of Change Model, the Taskforce has committed to working with leaders in the education sector to facilitate the development of leadership programmes to upskill and resource educational leaders to take a whole school setting approach to tackling gender inequality. The Taskforce’s work on this ambition is at an early stage and it will meet again in June to continue to develop ways to do so.
