 ℹ️ About This Session

This session explores the different ways boys and girls were educated. This is enforced during the roleplay element of the session, and pupils are encouraged to share how they felt about the inequality during the discussion section at the end.

Please let us know when you are booking if you have any pupils that would be sensitive to these experiences, and we will do our best to make everyone feel comfortable!
