    Introduction: Gender inequality towards women in Sierra Leone can be described as inequitable or impractical compared to the equality of women in developed/western countries. The roles women are expected to play are general expectations such as cooking, cleaning, and staying at home with the children, leaving women in Sierra Leone with very little to no chance of stepping out of these expected roles to prevent being stigmatized or possibly killed (Luna 2016). According to the Social Institutions and Gender Index, “despite legislative changes that have increased women’s legal protection, women continue to experience discriminatory practices.” Their rights and position are largely contingent on customary law and the ethnic group to which they…

    Many people, including sexists and naturists, believe that there have already been sufficient changes made in the educational system, and that there are not many ways in which it can still be improved in regards to gender equality. Male and female students attend the same schools, learn the same material, and have the same opportunities to receive help or ask questions. They believe that in terms of providing an equal educational experience, the current system is as good as it can possibly get. These people, especially sexists, believe that the reason men seem to be favored in the classroom, and the reason that men score higher on tests, is solely because men are inherently smarter than women.

    From the moment we are born, we are all indoctrinated with notions on how to perform our genders. According to Hendrix and Wei, early gender biases that children encounter can shape their attitudes and beliefs related to their development of interpersonal and intrapersonal relationships; access to education equality; and stifle their physical and psychological well-being (2009). Because children develop such a crucial aspect of their identity during their preschool years, it is essential that teachers recognize this fact and adapt their teaching methods to reflect learning and play that encourages children to think outside of rigidly defined gender norms.
