Teachers to be trained to spot early signs of misogyny in boys
Published: 12/17/2025

Government unveils plans to train teachers to identify early signs of misogyny in boys as part of a strategy to reduce violence against women and girls. The £20m package includes education on consent, positive role models, and challenging myths about women and relationships. By intervening early, the government aims to prevent young men from becoming violent abusers, with schools playing a key role in providing support and guidance to at-risk individuals. Critics emphasize the importance of wise spending and collaboration with schools already addressing these issues, highlighting the need for a holistic approach involving various stakeholders.
