Abstract
Research into masculinities and schooling has recently attracted an increased amount of attention, particularly in relation to working-class boys and academic underachievement. Exploring masculinities is not a 'new' area, however, as such issues have always featured in feminist research into schooling. There is a concern that not all of this work undertaken by male researchers engages with the knowledge and understanding provided by feminist research. The intention of this article is to consider the debates surrounding feminists exploring issues of masculinity and to ascertain the extent to which recent work by male writers/researchers into masculinities and schooling informs and complements existing feminist agendas.
