In this KS4 PSHE lesson, students examine themes of power, control, emotional vulnerability, and accountability through Adolescence (Episode 3, Part 2).

Titled You Don’t Control Me, this lesson zooms in on Jamie’s interactions with the psychologist, revealing how his behaviour reflects a deep struggle for dominance and a lack of emotional regulation. Using Socratic Circle discussion, students will explore how control, insecurity, and harmful beliefs about gender dynamics can affect relationships and self-perception. They will also consider how emotional support and intervention may (or may not) shift harmful attitudes.

Key Themes Explored in this lesson:

  • Control and emotional outbursts
  • Respect and boundaries in communication
  • Gender dynamics and the treatment of women
  • The challenges of accountability and remorse
  • Emotional regulation and influence

What’s included:

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

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

  • In-depth discussion questions
  • Safeguarding notes
