In this powerful KS4 PSHE lesson, students explore the emotional aftermath of violence through the eyes of Jamie’s parents. Based on Adolescence (Episode 4, Part 3), this lesson focuses on guilt, responsibility, and how parental actions and societal expectations shape young people’s behaviour.

Titled How Did We Make That?, this Socratic Circle lesson invites students to reflect on intergenerational masculinity, missed signs, and the question of nature vs nurture. As Jamie’s parents revisit their own upbringing, parenting choices, and the culture their son was raised in, students consider how emotional avoidance and pressure to “toughen up” boys may contribute to harmful behaviour.

Key Themes Explored in this lesson:

  • Parental responsibility and guilt
  • Generational patterns of masculinity
  • Emotional suppression in families
  • Gendered expectations and hobbies
  • Nature vs nurture and youth behaviour

What’s included:

  • Full lesson presentation
  • Starter and exit tasks
  • Clear learning objectives
  • Socratic discussion format guidance

Note: This lesson is designed to accompany the Adolescence Socratic Circle Teacher’s Guide (available in my Tes shop), which provides:

  • Detailed summaries for each part
  • Vocabulary lists and key terms
  • Discussion questions
  • Teacher notes and trigger warnings

Pair this with the Student Workbook and Parent Guide to deepen student engagement, scaffold preparation, and support home conversations.
