This is something close to home for me, I have 3 boys, the education system doesn't seem to cater to a lot of boys.

Not at all, I think girls should have all the opportunity to have; and more. But the stats are clear we are failing to educate boys in a major way.

Education is not a zero sum game, everyone can do well. The better everyone does, the better society does.

There is literally no good outcome from having one section of society that is under educated.
