A new report shows boys tend to outperform girls in maths and science.
Uptake and availability of technical subjects in schools can influence a student's proficiency in the areas of maths and science, according to Midlands Science.
A new report shows the gap between Irish boys and girls in schools, with male students tending to outperform their female counterparts in the more technical areas.
65 countries took part in the Trends in International Maths and Science Study 2023, with Ireland standing high in performance in general despite a lack of investment.
Doctor Aisling Twohill, trustee of Midlands Science, and living in Durrow, says the language people use around students can also have an impact:
