This guide is designed to assist primary and secondary school teachers in encouraging and supporting girls in STEM education. Girls and women are wellknown to be underrepresented in STEM fields, and societal and cultural biases can discourage girls from pursuing interests in maths and science (OECD, 2017).

This guide aims to address these issues by providing teachers with strategies and resources for encouraging girls to take more science, technology, engineering, and maths classes, as well as making STEM education more accessible and inclusive.
