See, that would be my problem - if there were emphasis on the fact that it was for *girls* cause girls didn't get maths as well as boys did. Why go there? I know plenty of guys that didn't understand maths either at school.
Why not just have a special kind of programme for those not adept at mathematics (like I was). I needed shit explained to me. a + b = c was not enough for me. I wanted to know why there were letters of the alphabet and why they represented the numbers. I needed the teacher to stop for five minutes and explain exactly *what* was happening in the equation I was seeing on the board. I couldn't parrot numbers and hope to get it.

Whoops - ranting about maths. Sorry! LOL!
