Teachers across London will be able to attend free, local training sessions to learn techniques for effectively using Tender’s specialist toolkit, and deliver workshops on building healthy relationships, calling out sexism, and exploring the impact of positive and negative language.

Participating secondary schools will also receive tailored support to deliver the learning in their classrooms.

The training sessions will take place in all London boroughs, and Tender is set to launch a second phase of the programme this summer, which will focus on supporting teachers in primary schools and settings supporting children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
