Stéréotypes de genre et orientation professionnelle
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2018 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Our project is called " Gender Stereotypes and career choice " and brings together three schools from France, Italy and Poland. Its main goal is to fight against stereotypes about jobs and gender. Indeed, most of the young people consider that there are jobs for men and jobs for women. Therefore, when they have to choose their vocationnal specialities, they are guided by these mass clichés, and they don't wonder if the job they have chosen is interesting for themselves, well-paid and guarantees a social advancement. Finally, men reach high positions and women get low-paid and poor quality jobs. During our three-year project, about 40 teachers from the three countries will work together and share their professional practices to create a toolbox of teaching methods to help pupils to realize and identify the stereotypes which guide their way of thinking. It should help them to make informed choices of their future job. It also should fight against bad school results, especially for male pupils who often think that they must be rebels and use strength or violence to prove their value. This behaviour is another effect of gender stereotypes and leads many boys to a difficult scolarship. The toolbox that we will build will be tested with the pupils of our schools involved in our project. It will be online on a dedicated website for all the teachers. In a medium term we hope to observe a better balance between girls' and boys' choices in our schools' different educational paths.
