This good practice example shows how Oak Cottage Primary School developed a body image programme with the support of the local authority personal, social and health education (PSHE) team and put it into place following the analysis of pupils’ responses. The aim was to increase teachers’, parents’, carers’ and pupils’ awareness of body image and to focus on how images portrayed within the media can impact on how pupils view themselves and others.
