Teachers will be given training to spot the signs of misogyny and tackle it in the classroom as part of the government’s long-awaited strategy to halve violence against women and girls within the next decade.
The plans – which focus on preventing the radicalisation of young men – are due to be unveiled on Thursday, after being pushed back three times this year.
Pupils will be taught about issues such as consent, the dangers of sharing intimate images, how to identify positive role models and to challenge unhealthy myths about women and relationships.
