The educational needs of adolescent girls have never really been met by schools
leading to a variety of social, emotional and aspirational problems for girls and women alike.
In this speculative inquiry I have explored the work of care ethicists, imaginative educators,
critical theorists and groups outside of schools to develop a new framework for educating
girls based upon the needs that I have identified as critical and unmet for far too many girls. I
have surmised that girls’ needs for belonging, identity, competency and caring spirit could be
better met and could lead to voice, agency and freedom for girls if schools were to implement
the ideas contained in my critical framework.
