Mark and Matt chat to James about the issues surrounding disadvantaged students - starting with what we even call them!

Episode 2 Disadvantaged Children

Matt Pinkett is a school teacher and author of Boys Don't Try - Rethinking Masculinity In Schools. As we draw the second season of Men Behaving Better to a close, it seems only fitting to bring it back to the root source of much of this season's content - how boys are raised.

Matt speaks about the dismissing of boys and how society systemically makes excuses for them while also explaining what we're doing wrong in how we traditionally educate boys.

Matt details the shocking level of sexual harassment of teachers and the challenges of implementing a sexual harassment policy in schools. From re-defining self harm to the difficulty of walking away from disputes, teaching tender masculinity and much more, this conversation may possibly be the most important one of the series to date.

Matt's book Boy's Don't Try is available to buy here https://www.amazon.co.uk/Boys-Dont-Rethinking-Masculinity-Schools/dp/0815350252
