Schools can help keep children safe by being proactive rather than reactive. Through our Comprehensive Sexuality Programmes in schools, we impart information about healthy relationships and explore topics such as friendships, appropriate touch, keeping safe, recognising and assessing risk and knowing how and where to get help when needed.
