Teenage boys at a school in Essex will be given lessons in chatting up the opposite sex.
The male teachers at Chase High School will be taking part in the mentoring session which is aimed at teaching boys at the school a variety of skills, including how to save money, how to shave, how to treat women and how to ask out a girl, the Daily Star reported.
Head teacher Victoria Overy said that the scheme was set up to help and support young boys who lack a male role model in their life, and is directed at improving their self-esteem and helping them to grow up to be decent men.
The school is also imparting finance management skills and discussing career aspirations with the female students.
