Sexism and stereotyping in vocational education serve to perpetuate gendered occupations by reinforcing traditional gender roles. An example of this is the use of occupational cards in schools, which often depict caring and nurturing roles as being solely for women, while male-dominated professions such as engineering and aviation are exclusively represented by male figures. It is important to challenge these gender stereotypes and promote inclusivity.

My occupation cards are illustrated to break free from traditional gender roles by depicting women in male-dominated professions and encouraging students to explore a wider range of career paths, irrespective of their gender.
