On the 6th June a collection of Lower Sixth Formers from Dixie Grammar School joined by Stafford Grammar met for the first time to discuss topics raised by the “Everyone’s Invited” campaign. Throughout the day the students respectfully discussed topics such as sexism, stereotyping and consent with the aim of helping to create a positive environment in both schools for all members of the community. They looked at the topics and how they are portrayed in the media including music and television and how certain concepts have been normalised when they should not be acceptable. The students took part in activities to better understand the concepts they were discussing and came up with ideas to explore in further sessions including applications in both schools. The day was a great start to what we hope will be a successful partnership between the two schools.
