Free relationship and sex education training and resources
Public Health Warwickshire have funded support for secondary schools to develop their relationship and sex education (RSE) programmes
Doing It is a sex positive RSE programme for teachers and the young people they work with. The package covers work and campaigns suitable for years 7-13. It is a complete package of training and resources to be used in secondary schools across Warwickshire.
Comprehensive RSE covers much more than merely a condom demonstration and a brief explanation of where babies come from. Real sex education should be a full exploration of a person’s sexuality: who they are, how they feel, how their body works, their attitudes, values, behaviour, relationship and personal boundaries.
Indeed, young people now have to navigate issues around consent, sexting, the influence of pornography and peer to peer exploitation. Whilst many of these struggles take place outside of the school walls, it is often left to teachers to pick up the pieces and deal with the fallout. The Doing It programme is designed to help support schools’ safeguarding measures around these issues by not only tackling then in the classroom but also ensuring that you have the correct policies and procedures in place and are aware of the services that can support you.
Doing It is a blended learning programme. This means that some of the work will be self-supported study online, combined with online tutorials, discussion groups and forums, as well as four short, after school, face-to-face training sessions and in addition some time allocated for in-school teaching support. Our trainer is flexible and able to adjust delivery to suit school demands.
The course should be completed within a term (around 12 weeks). Schools should commit to training a member of the senior leadership team and at least 5 staff that will deliver the programme.
