Overview

Qualitative research evaluates SGBs' role in promoting gender equity in Foundation Phase education, suggesting community engagement may enhance practices.

Key Points

  • The lack of training among SGBs limits their ability to promote gender equity effectively.
  • Persistent socio-cultural norms hinder girls' access to and retention in Foundation Phase education.
  • The study highlights the need for comprehensive training on gender equity for SGB members.
  • Successful gender-equitable practices require collaboration with local communities to challenge traditional beliefs.
