Just been informed that all pupils will attend, the production is billed as combating the issues of sexism, sexual harassment and violence; it also specifically mentions exposing and responding to the harmful attitudes that perpetuate harassment and gender injustice. (my emphasis)
Has anyone seen it?

'Friends Oli and Kalyn confront their friend Adam, who has been saying and posting some worrying things lately. They have decided to stage an intervention and are going to explain to Adam what sexism is, the differing forms that it can take and the impact that comments and actions can have.'

Quote from the above link. 'An intervention for heaven's sake.

I'm not seeing the problem here?

It sounds well-intentioned although children don't respond well to all those stories will heavy-handed morals to them

Yup.

Sometimes I think it fuels exactly what they don't want. Especially among the sort of boys who want to kick at the traces.

Kind of like heavy-handed anti-drug messaging.

Indeed, I remember 'just say 'know'.

I've seen this. It's standard TIE fare. Leans into the Andrew Tate kinda conversations. I don't think there's anything too worrying in it. Although some of the acting was a bit shouty 'student-De Niro'.
Not as bad as their county lines one, which was basically an unintentional recruitment presentation.

We had a "drugs" presentation back in the olden days when I was at school but all I remember is that the kids doing drugs seemed to be having a good time, which I don't think was the intention.

Thank you all, I was just curious as to how any trans stuff might be delivered -the county lines one sounds intriguing!
