How do we teach about misogyny without alienating boys?
Our latest lesson pack looks at the 'hot topic' of misogyny. Using best practice recommendations for facilitating this controversial issue through our usual range of short, medium and longer activities you and your team will have plenty at your finger tips to feel well prepared and confident. We have also produced some additional teacher notes and a 'spoof' toxic influencer video to help you deconstruct the manipulative messaging and psychological trickery used to 'hook' boys and young men into this disturbing rhetoric. If you haven't already attended our CPD accredited training on misogyny and sexual harassment you can book your place using the 'events' tab on the homepage.
