Aim of the programme;
Keeping Ourselves Safe is a comprehensive child abuse prevention programme for schools. Its purpose is to:
- teach students a range of safe practices that they can use when interacting with other people, both online and face to face
- teach students how to recognise the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationships, and encourage students who have been or are being abused to seek help
- prevent abuse by making parents and teachers more aware of their responsibilities to help students avoid abuse.
This programme is running for 4 weeks on a Tuesday. Your children will bring home homework to support their learning. They are learning their address and parents contact numbers and also who to call incase of an emergency.
