| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this paper is to investigate how students perceive gender patterns, gender and equality in their
school environment. The following two questions we intend to answer is: How do secondary- and high school
students in different socioeconomic environments, experience gender patterns, gender and equality in the school
environment? As well as the potential impact the factors of age and gender on students' experience? An
interview was conducted in two schools, one secondary school and one high school. The areas where students
experience these differences in expectations and demands most obvious is the physical education , classroom
space situations , expectations regarding school performance, attitudes toward girls and boys, as well as
requirements on how you should look. The school shall promote democratic values and equality between women
and men. The study is relevant because it shows that the norms around gender patterns are still evident and that
the school enviroment is not equal. | sv |
