As a primary school teacher, it can often be a delicate and daunting task to talk about body image with students. The Embrace Kids film provides teachers and schools with a wonderful platform to foster conversations in a safe and respectful environment. The real role models and kids who feature in the film are nothing short of inspiring; empowering kids to embrace their bodies, celebrate differences and find their uniqueness.
