title: Judgment, 10 July 1986.
abstract: The Court held that a cantonal law ensuring "equivalent" education for girls and boys did not violate Swiss constitutional provisions guaranteeing "equal" treatment.  It ruled that this constitutional provision did not demand that boys and girls receive the same amount of mandatory classes in certain subjects, such as housekeeping, and that only concrete course schedules that restricted certain courses to boys or girls would be unconstitutional.
