Abstract

During last one decade the Govt of NCT of Delhi took several steps to sensitize the girls students studying in the schools being run by the Directorate of Education, GNCT of Delhi. This research paper is an attempt to examine the effectiveness of Gender Sensitisation Initiatives, taken by the government on the academic performance of girls studying in government schools of Delhi. Delhi has implemented several reforms aimed at creating inclusive and gender-responsive school environments. On the basis of the CBSE examination data (2022-2025), literacy statistics, enrolment trends, and secondary research findings, this study analyses whether gender sensitisation contributes to improved academic outcomes. The findings suggest that gender-inclusive practices have led girls students to a better and equitable status with higher participation, improved confidence levels, and better performance by girls in the Board examinations. While academic success is influenced by multiple factors, gender sensitisation emerges as a significant enabling factor in fostering equitable educational achievement.
