Identifying gender gaps on sports degrees: a retrospective case study
This study aimed to identify gender gaps in enrolment and average grades on undergraduate sports degrees at a UK university. Data were retrospectively analysed over five years (1224 ± 57 students per year). On sports degrees, only 25–32 % of new students were women, whereas on physiotherapy 65 % of new students were women. Across all degree pathways, women consistently achieved 3–5 % higher average grades, which resulted in the average grade for women being one grade boundary higher than for men. These gendered gaps could contribute to discrepancies within the sport industries and should be considered by staff who teach and recruit on sports degrees.
