This paper is concerned with the intersection of discourse, pedagogy and gender identification in primary school classrooms. More specifically, it uses illustrative findings from a larger study to examine
boys' and girls' discourses in learning and friendship groups in the classrooms of two demographically similar but pedagogically different primary schools. It warns against seeking simple solutions to complex
questions about which pedagogies suit boys or girls best.
