Women today are more likely
than men to emerge from the school system with a general education.
However, the segmentation of the labour market between valorised
jobs for men an devalued jobs for women is reflected, as far
as the system of initial education is concerned, in a significant
segregation between boys and girls within different subjects
and courses (literary and tertiary for girls, scientific and
industrial technology for boys). The growth of feminine education
is inclined to introduce a vertical division in the girls- group
between those who have a level of education equal to or superior
to GCSE «A» Level* and those who have a lower level.
The way in which the differences between the sexes are organised
in professional training and insertion reflects the social relations
between the sexes, which are structured like a system of division
and domination between two sexes.
