ABSTRACT
The main thrust of the study was to examine the role of education in ensuring gender equality and its effect in the society. Specifically, the study was set out to find out how education has changed values and promote gender equality, determine how sex segregation in education is a risk to the society among others. Five research questions and five hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Relevant literature were reviewed. Descriptive survey design was adopted for the study and the population of the study comprised all Lagos State civil servants. Simple and Stratified Random Sampling techniques was employed to select 165 participants. Questionnaire was the main instrument used for data collection.
