    King Alfred's A Specialist Sports College

    Course description

    Boys get a bad press. They can be wonderful, dreadful, straightforward, complicated. Any way you look at it, they say they don’t care.

    This workshop will be about understanding and supporting the boys we work with, the boys who delight and disappoint us, who surprise and frustrate us. Amongst other themes, we’ll explore boys and sex, schoolwork, intimacy, mother-figures, anger, dependency, father-figures, girls, groups, separation, sexuality.
