La formación en igualdad de género en los grados de educación primaria

The article above deals with the need to acquire a gender perspective so as to achieve true equality in a school setting. This legislation backs gender equality as a principle of education. In order to confirm if the initial teacher training is adequate in this respect, an analysis of the curricula of the education degrees is conducted with a gender viewpoint. For this purpose, a qualitative approximation based on the analysis of content from 72 teaching guides and interviews with university teachers was carried out. The results show how teacher training in Primary Education degrees still revolves around an androcentric view of education, this has not adjusted to current legislation. Therefore, this does not guarantee that future generations are correctly educated in equality. This opens the possibility of exploring gender equality training at a broader level and research on the effective application of coeducation in the Spanish educational system.
