UK Teachers to be Trained to Spot Misogyny: A Backlash of Concerns and Doubts
The government has unveiled a new initiative addressing misogyny among young men, allocating £20 million for teacher training on identifying role models, challenging harmful stereotypes, and establishing a helpline for abuse concerns. This strategy aims to prevent violence by tackling the early roots of misogyny, offering extra support to high-risk students through behavioral courses. Despite the government’s intentions, critics like Kemi Badenoch have dismissed the plan as inadequate, with some suggesting that the government’s approach is inspired by the Netflix drama “Adolescence.”
