Whilst parents and carers are children’s primary source of relationships and sexuality education, supporting children’s healthy sexual development is a responsibility that is shared by schools, parents and carers. Children and young people who receive comprehensive relationships and sexuality education (inclusive of sexual abuse prevention education) from an early age are more likely to: feel good about themselves understand and accept changes appreciate and accept individual differences are more likely to make informed and responsible sexual decisions later in life are less vulnerable to sexual abuse understand appropriate and inappropriate behaviour talk about their feelings and experiences. True’s approach True’s All School CSE program is delivered by trained educators in a way that is respectful, free of discrimination and accepting of the diversity that exists within relationships and families.
