Show Notes
A young scientist project has found a glaring gender disparity within math's based school subjects. Three first year students from Kinsale Community School found that from fifth class, girls lose confidence in their ability, thus making them less likely to study the discipline.
Joining Pat to discuss their project which is part of The Young Scientist Exhibition was Cushla O'Reilly, Elise O'Sullivan and Caoimhe Ni Charrigan alongside Eoghan O'Leary, teacher at Kinsale Community School and Head of Math's at the Tuition Centre.
