What is being bought

Published requirement description

GMCA have awarded Salford Foundation £100,000 to deliver the STEPS (Education Gender Based Violence) project for 12 months.

The Salford Foundation's STEPS programme is a universal, school-based intervention working with boys aged 9-13. It aims to address gender-based violence (GBV) by promoting positive masculinity, challenging harmful gender norms, and empowering boys to model positive behaviour.

The support is delivered to all boys in the chosen year group in six interactive group sessions, across 6 weeks, each lasting around 50-75 minutes. The curriculum aims to provide a safe space for boys to explore and challenge gender-related topics, increase their awareness and understanding, and lead to behaviour change. It covers:

  • Gender stereotypes and misogyny
  • Online platforms and misogynistic content
  • Healthy and safe online behaviour
  • Active bystander strategies
  • Respect and relationships
