The The Gender-Responsive Pedagogy for Early Childhood Education (GRP4ECE) Toolkit targets ECE teachers, school leaders, ECE student teachers, ECE teacher trainers, caregivers and any other practitioners who deal with younger children. It is also a useful resource for researchers, school parent committees and governing bodies, civil society organisations, community leaders and education policy makers.  The toolkit offers an introduction to GRP in ECE and serves as a practical guide that can be adapted to any context and the related needs. It is a source of ideas that individual teachers and school leaders can put to immediate use in their classrooms and schools. The toolkit comprises five chapters. The first gives an overview of gender in education in the African context. The sociocultural environment influences teaching and learning. The second chapter, which forms the core of the toolkit, introduces GRP in ECE. It explores how genderresponsiveness in lesson planning, lesson delivery, the teaching and learning environment, learning materials, interactions and use of language can foster real learning. The third chapter focuses on GRP and school leadership, identifying ways to integrate GRP in schools at a more structural level. Chapter four offers some ideas for practical classroom activities for learners, designed to generate opportunities to talk about gender roles and challenge stereotypes in the ECE classroom. The fifth chapter consists of guidelines for an interactive game, called Go Gender Go, for teachers and school leaders.
