Abstract: This research dedicates itself towards comprehending the attitude, beliefs and perceptions of educators on the relationship between gender and academic performance, and briefly explore the consequences of the same at individual as well as community levels. Beginning with providing a concise introduction to gender bias, and its manifestation within the sphere of skills and potentials of a student, this paper moves onto employing the primary research methodology of a survey to study the research statement. Conducted among twenty-seven participants, this study inferred, that even though there is significant progressive change in the way occupations are not as strictly linked with gender as the literature review suggests, there still exist unconscious efforts to link certain abilities and skills with gender. This research finally concludes with making certain policy recommendations which could perhaps aid in tackling these biases.
