The Law has Changed. Have you?

The Worker Protection Act 2023 means businesses now have a duty to prevent sexual harassment including those by 'third parties'. This brings added risk and opportunities for schools and colleges and a need for managers to handle cases sensitively and fairly.

This 3 hour CPD accredited course provides a memorable and innovative way for managers to keep up to date with the latest changes to sexual harassment legislation and practice skills such as investigation meetings in a safe space so that they feel confident to face a live case.

The Use of Drama

The drama provides a way to lift the issues from a Powerpoint deck and understand the human element of handling sexual harassment cases.

The training creates a safe, non-judgmental space for senior leaders and managers working in education to use the trauma informed drama to explore workplace culture, inclusivity, and respect.

The trainees interact with the characters and support a manager through an investigation meeting.

"The thing I value most about the training was the interactive nature, the role playing. I think it was much easier to interact with that rather than doing it from slides on screen and talking. I think the drama and being involved was the best part of it.”

Rob Cherry, Home Regional Director - Trade Counters

Participants praise the interaction and safe atmosphere and the engaging use of drama.

"I think it's really important for companies to have this kind of training at the moment, because sexual harassment cases are really, really difficult to navigate. The law around sexual harassment has changed, which puts a lot more onus on businesses to take a proactive role in preventing it.”

Clare Moore, Chief People and Sustainability Officer - Headlam Group PLC

Room Requirements and Layout

We come to you. We can deliver in your on site training room or at any suitable venue you choose to book. e.g. school or college hall or training room. The space for the 3 hour manager’s training should be big enough for 35 participants. Larger groups can be accommodated on request for a shorter conference style session.

We require 3 tables and 5 chairs for use in the drama plus a chair for each participant. We also need a projector and screen we can connect our laptop to and access to an electrical point. These are to be provided by client.

The room should be suitable to ensure that the set up can change throughout the day depending on the activity so that we can move between one large circle of chairs and a theatre style towards the projector/performance space.

Equal Opportunities

Clients will be asked to provide Loudmouth with any special requirements or extra support that delegates may need. This will be agreed prior to the date of delivery and adjustments are made if necessary.

Tailored Version

We can provide a standard version that covers an un-named / generic workplace or can work with you on a version that more closely matches your specific school or college needs.

For an additional cost, we can change references, details, processes shown in the drama to make the fictional scenario more closely echo your real work environment.

We can also offer versions where we co-deliver with you so that the drama becomes a case study you can work through with specific details on your own processes and procedures or explore hybrid sessions where some participants are physically in the training space whilst others observe and participate remotely.
