The SNP's Carol Monaghan says that in Scotland STEM (Science, Technology, English and Maths) teachers need a relevant degree in order to teach their subject.
She asks what representations Justine Greening is making to toy manufacturers to prevent stereotyping of boys' and girls' jobs.
Ms Greening says Ms Monaghan should be focussing on the underlying strategy "we all need to have" to get women into studying STEM subjects.
The number of women accepted onto STEM undergraduate courses has increased 25% since 2010, she adds.
