Article here. Excerpt:

'Derbyshire County Council went out to tender for an “exploring masculinities” programme earlier this year and the year-long programme will be led by Devon charity Beyond Equality.

The programme the county council hired the charity for is detailed as follows: “Exploring masculinities will support pupils in secondary education setting, as well as education staff, to be able to reflect on pressures young people face regarding masculinity and produce an action plan to support embedding safe respectful behaviours in the whole setting.

“This project will serve to support students, and their school settings to reflect on the pressures they experience concerning masculinity, and develop school communities that support respectful, safe, healthy behaviour of the whole school.”'
