Comparison of School Performance of Boys and Girls in Mathematics in CM, in The School District of OUENZE I , Brazzaville, Republic of Congo

Abstract

Our research study focused on the comparison of the academic performance of boys and girls in mathematics in CM in the school district of Ouenze I in Brazzaville . To carry out this study, we relied on documentary analysis, observation and interviews. The results obtained allowed us to identify the difference between the academic performance of boys and girls in mathematics in CM. The documentary analysis through statements and report cards show that girls presented better performance in calculation writing compared to the boys. The demonstration based on these differences shows that the marks achieved by the girls are closer to the average. The themes that accentuate this difference are numeration, geometry and measurement through written calculation . Since the gap is not so great, it would therefore be appropriate to say that the Congo is making an effort to educate boys and girls in the same conditions.
