Grading in school is never anonymous so it’s hardly bias-free. My theory is teachers like obedient pupils and that’s why they prefer girls over boys.

- naijaboiler 4y agoThis is the most likely factor. A teacher has to teach a decent class size. Overall, boys are more disruptive. So yeah, it makes sense that teachers consciously or subconsciously reward those who make their work easier, by behaving better and following instructions
- spywaregorilla 4y agoThat's not the question though. If the grading were made anonymous, and girl's continued to receive better grades, that would diminish the claim a fair bit.
