Abstract

With the continuous development of the economy, the issue of educational equity in China is gradually improving. However, it is undeniable that there are still problems in education caused by gender differences. This article explores the complex challenges faced by marginalized genders and makes recommendations for improving equity and inclusion. This study investigates the different factors that contribute to gender disparities in education. These factors include unconscious biases, socioeconomic disparities, and differences in students’ experiences in the classroom. This helps to highlight the intricate and interconnected character of the issue at hand. The essay emphasizes the detrimental effects that gender stereotypes and unequal educational opportunities have on the academic accomplishment, well-being, and social mobility of pupils. The research highlights the significance of developing inclusive educational environments, questioning preconceived notions, and ensuring that all students, regardless of their gender, are provided with equal experiences and opportunities. Through promoting collaboration among educators, policymakers, and civil society, China can eliminate structural hurdles to gender equality in education and develop a learning environment that is equitable and empowering for future generations.
