Our inspiring gender stereotypes programme explores with students their uniqueness and that they should be proud of who they are, whether they are a boy or a girl. They can do and become anything they want to be if they just put their mind to it; gender doesn’t define you! The workshops will focus on individual potential, challenging stereotypes and how we can educate others about gender stereotyping.
Through Gender Stereotypes we will aim to:
- Encourage students to respect their own, as well as each other’s, differences
and similarities, irrespective of gender. - Raise awareness about what gender stereotyping is and how the opinions we
form about each other should be based on the personal attributes we posses
rather than preconceived ideas based on gender. - Challenge students to explore their own opinions about the restrictions that
currently exist for certain groups of people due to prejudice. - Excite participants about the changes they can make both at home and at school
30 minute assembly, followed by 1-hour workshops for up to 4 classes from KS1 & KS2.
