NEW DOC! ๐จ
Letโs Talk About Sex (Education) is a one-off documentary looking at some of the many reasons why a comprehensive and inclusive sex education curriculum is important.
Produced and presented by @LucyCCarr

We enjoyed chatting to @officialinews_ about recent research that shows young people frequently asking AI chat-bots for info on sexual health.
It's clear young people need more + better spaces to openly discuss their questions on bodies, sex + relationships. Let's protect #RSE.
@SplitBananaaa One in 10 young people have relied on AI for information about sexual health โ amounting to 700,000 people in the UK, according to research by @PlanUK.
Let's inform young people and create safe spaces for these discussions rather than pushing them away.

Guidance for schools on trans pupils has been delayed. The guidance risks breaking the law.
We urge those involved to listen to the needs of young people. To actually SPEAK to + CONSULT with them. To centre the wellbeing + inclusion of ALL pupils.

Thanks to the expert panel for an insightful look at how schools can address and prevent peer-abuse in schools. Hit up @ei_movement and @SplitBananaaa to effectively explore this topic at your school. And make sure to look at the @YouthEndowFund to see what is having an impact!
The UK is not safe for trans people. The UK is not safe for trans youth. The UK is a terrifying place to be right now. Please be vocal, please push back, please challenge anti-trans rhetoric, please check in with your trans pals.

Totally horrified to see what the trans guidance might include.
No doubt, we are experiencing a repeat of Section 28.
This is a huge threat to young trans lives + is the opposite of safeguarding.

What happens when you mix:
โ๏ธ Journalism that lacks integrity
โ๏ธ Sensationalist reporting
โ๏ธ Lesson plans taken out of age & context
โ๏ธ A lack of understanding about RSE
โ๏ธ Inaccurate information
You get this piece of drivel designed to shock and divide the country.
Disgusting
We're hiring for another role!

Check out both roles + pls share far + wide: https://t.co/lEAQbe1mkn ๐ซ
Today I finished a two-day course with @SplitBananaaa & it was so refreshing! I love how in-tune with young people & current issues SB are (which may seem like an obvious thing to be as a RSHE organisation but it isnโt always the case unfort) - couldnโt recommend SB more! ๐๐ป ๐
