abstract: 'Girls'' education and participation in economic activities are relatively
|
|
|
|
low in patriarchal Pakistani societies due to stereotypical family roles
|
|
|
|
and cultural and religious inclinations. This study examines the
|
|
|
|
influences of educational institutions and educational actors on
|
|
|
|
gender-role ideologies in mainstream education in the public sector in
|
|
|
|
an urban setting. The study methodology uses a mixed-method research
|
|
|
|
approach; the quantitative analysis is conducted using the Social Roles
|
|
|
|
Questionnaire, and the study aims to explore educators'' views on gender
|
|
|
|
roles and their relationship to demographics. Schools'' disposition
|
|
|
|
toward gender segregation was investigated through a qualitative
|
|
|
|
Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). The findings of the quantitative part
|
|
|
|
revealed that the majority of the participants believed in traditional
|
|
|
|
gender roles regardless of differences in their education, parental
|
|
|
|
education, experience, job status, level of teaching, gender,
|
|
|
|
designation, and type of institution (girls only/boys
|
|
|
|
only/co-education). Qualitative analysis showed that educational
|
|
|
|
institutions are playing a significant role in widening the gender gap
|
|
|
|
due to the perceived intention of education being gender-biased that
|
|
|
|
aims at developing boys as income producers and girls as morally rich
|
|
|
|
stereotypical daughters, wives, and mothers. Additionally, education
|
|
|
|
allows girls to shoulder the double burden of work and home in poor and
|
|
|
|
middle-class families with limited cultural and domestic careers;
|
|
|
|
however, for outdoor services, teaching careers are of paramount
|
|
|
|
importance. Furthermore, girls'' higher education is considered less
|
|
|
|
meaningful, and participants have a rigid, traditional mindset. This
|
|
|
|
study is unique in that, for the first time, it examines the influence
|
|
|
|
of public-sector institutions and educationists'' personal mindsets on
|
|
|
|
gender-role stereotypes in an urban metropolitan area of Pakistan. This
|
|
|
|
research provides recommendations for policymakers to cater to
|
|
|
|
gender-disparity concerns for the well-being of the nation.'
