New Dove Self-Esteem Project

The Dove Self-Esteem Project provides free resources to help teachers deliver a series of sessions about self-esteem.

The five Confident Me workshops are designed to teach 11 to 14-year-olds strategies to protect and build self-confidence - in themselves and others.

You get:

Students will learn about:

Appearance ideals: how they began, the pressure they put on young people and how they have changed over time.
Media messages: how messages and images from advertising and social media are often manipulations of the truth, so it can be unhealthy and unrealistic to compare ourselves to them.
Confronting comparisons: the negative consequences that comparing looks can have – and positive ways to respond to comparison situations.
Banishing body talk: what ‘body talk’ means and the impact it can have on self-esteem and body confidence – plus strategies to reduce body talk and shift the focus to other qualities and achievements.
Being the change: a chance for students to review and reflect on the previous four sessions – and prepare to lead by example as they take the body confident message out into their school life.

Don’t have time to carry out all five workshops? There is also a single-session workshop, which covers the key points of each.

You can access all of these resources – and extra materials to share with parents – by filling out the form below.
