SUMMARY:Understanding the manosphere
DESCRIPTION:🏷️ From £135\n🎧 Headteachers\, Deputy and Assistant Headteachers\, Heads of Boarding\, Inclusion professionals and HR professionals\n📍 Online \n\nCourse outline: \nFrom September 2026\, UK schools will be required to teach about incel culture as per the upcoming Relationships\, Sex and Health Education (RSHE) guidance. In this context and in light of growing public awareness\, this webinar will cover the manosphere\, a broad network of online communities and influencers that shape young people’s beliefs about masculinity\, gender\, and relationships. The session explains the different subgroups within the manosphere\, why teenage boys are drawn to this content\, and how its narratives can appear in school environments. Delegates will learn to recognise early indicators of harmful or exclusionary gender beliefs\, understand the needs that drive engagement with these spaces\, and develop constructive\, non-judgemental strategies for responding. By the end of the session\,  delegates will be equipped to identify key manosphere narratives and support students through informed and empathetic conversations. \nLearning outcomes: \n\nUnderstand the manosphere ecosystem\nRecognise indicators and risks in educational settings\nApply effective pedagogical and pastoral responses\n\n*If you would like to become a member and access discounted rates for IELA CPD and events\, please click here. \nBook now \n\nSpeaker: Tim Jarvis  \nTim Jarvis is currently the Senior Master: Pastoral Care at Michaelhouse\, a South African boarding school for senior boys in KwaZulu-Natal.
