Abstract	Many countries have been successful in closing gender gaps in learning outcomes. But even when boys and girls are equally proficient in mathematics and science, their attitudes towards learning and aspirations for their future are markedly different - and that has a significant impact on their decision to pursue further education and on their choice of career. [This report] tries to determine why 15-year-old boys are more likely than girls, on average, to be overall low achievers, and why high-performing 15-year-old girls underachieve in mathematics, science and problem solving compared to high-achieving boys. As the evidence in the report makes clear, gender disparities in school performance stem form students' attitudes towards learning and their behaviour in school, from how they choose to spend their leisure time, and from the confidence they have - or do not have - in their own abilities as students.
