Healthy Masculinity
workshop
Empower your KS3, KS4, and KS5 students with an interactive workshop that will help them explore societal pressures, challenge stereotypes, and redefine masculinity in positive, resilient ways.
Through guided discussions and activities, participants will gain tools to understand and express emotions healthily, build stronger self-esteem, and foster supportive relationships.
With a 100% approval rating from teachers, this workshop is proven to make a lasting impact on students’ well-being and perspective on masculinity.
Led by a team of expert facilitators of all genders, our workshops are 90-100 minutes long, and can be delivered to single or mixed gender groups.
By the end of this workshop, students will:
-
Understand the significance of addressing pressures and expectations faced by boys and young men.
-
Analyse societal stereotypes about emotions, discussing how society perceives certain emotions as “manly” or not.
-
Recognise that resilience involves navigating emotions rather than suppressing them.
-
Define the concept of masculinity, identifying and acknowledging the pressures that boys and young men encounter.
-
Engage in discussions about the impact of societal pressures on self-esteem, well-being, and relationships, while also recognising how these pressures influence the experiences of girls and women.
-
Collaborate in developing new, positive expectations that define what healthy masculinity means to them.
-
Reflect individually on an action they can take to embody or promote healthy masculinity beyond the session and into their real life.
