In National Curriculum science, mathematics and technology, girls are consistently out performed by boys. They choose to use construction toys less than boys in their playgroups and reception classes and are already reluctant to take risks with construction toys and activities by the time they are first assessed in school.
The handbook sets out ways of involving girls in constructional activities and analyses the management issues that determine their achievement.
The authors are advisers in primary education.
