Scotland's largest teaching union is developing a new resource to challenge misogyny in schools.

Many Good Men: Changing The Story About Online Misogyny consists of a pack for teachers and activities for the classroom. It is based on participatory theatre projects run by a group called Civic Digits, which explore misogyny, mental health and masculinity.

The union said the fictional characters in these scenarios will allow young people in late high school and college settings to explore difficult ideas.

The Scottish Government has welcomed the initiative.
