Description
When it comes to those difficult questions about sex and relationships, how do you strike the balance between an answer that is professional but open, correct but doesn’t create panic?
Aimed at secondary teachers and trainees, as well as being useful for parents and those working in charities and the voluntary sector, this book covers all the mandatory topics of the new RSE curriculum. Each chapter includes a full list of the questions to be tackled, teacher guidance highlighting important points, and model answers. Diagrams and photos are included to aid understanding and there is helpful signposting to further reading. Potentially unfamiliar topics, such as laws surrounding sexting and LGBTQ+ terminology, are clearly explained and common misconceptions and myths are dispelled.
Based on years of experience, this handy text provides clear answers to the questions young people ask about RSE to help you increase your knowledge, gain confidence and ensure pupils receive the most accurate and up to date information.
