Relationships And Sexuality Education
STUDENT WORKSHOPS

Using our combined experience in sexology, psychology and secondary education, we've designed training to equip young people with the communication skills they need to form healthy, respectful relationships. 

​

Our facilitated seminars and workshops are designed in consultation with recent high school graduates and alligned to the Victorian Curriculum. They combine the latest research in Relationships and Sexuality Education with student feedback and our expert knowledge of what actually works in the classroom.

Consent Online

Let's tackle non-consensual photo sharing head on. Taking a harm-minimisation approach, we help young people understand the laws around sharing sexually explicit photos (including image-based abuse and child pornography). We also teach the skills to check for consent when sharing any photos, tagging, or talking about someone on social media, because respectful relationships online start with practising consent in day-to-day scenarios.

Consent and Body Language

Early high school comes with a whole range of new types of relationships to navigate. In this seminar, we provide students with the tools to ask their friends or partner what they would like when it comes to physical touch (like holding hands, kissing and hugging) and even spending time together. Students will also learn how to read body language to determine whether or not they have received an enthusiastic yes, as well as how to communicate clearly and openly to manage expectations and keep everybody feeling safe.

Let's Talk About Pornography

Whether their parents restrict their devices or not, many young people are turning to pornography as a way of learning about sex. But the reality is that porn models a whole range of unhealthy, unsafe and non-consensual behaviours and also reinforces ‘beauty standards’ that lead to body image issues. In order to combat this, we will guide your students through frank and honest discussions around the ways in which pornography does not actually reflect sex in the real world.

Consent and the Law

Students will learn about the new affirmative consent laws, and what this looks like in practice. We’ll go beyond simply outlining the laws, ensuring students know how to apply their understanding of affirmative consent to the real world. Students will explore what consent and non-consent look like, both verbal and non-verbal, as we help to clear up those 'grey areas' and ensure young people stay safe. 

Create Space for a 'No'

We’re all aware that ‘they didn’t say no’ isn’t a valid defence when it comes to sexual harm. Coercion, or the freeze/fawn responses, can make it hard to say no. But do young people actually know what a ‘no’ looks like? Can they recognise when a verbal ‘yes’ is actually a ‘no’?  This seminar will help students understand the value of being told ‘no’, and teach them to recognise a no in those ‘gray areas’. They will also learn strategies to make those around them feel comfortable telling them ‘no’.

Affirmative Consent Skills

In this seminar, we use everyday, non-sexual scenarios to teach the communication skills vital for affirmative consent. Students will learn to check in, as well as seek and give direction and feedback. There’s also a focus on practising ways to speak up if something doesn’t feel quite right for them.
