Feeling a bit rusty when it comes to teaching sex ed? You are not alone. Teaching sexual health and respectful relationships is one of the trickiest parts of 7-10 PDHPE and students are arriving with earlier and heavier exposure than ever.
This week, Kelly Bell sits down with Carolyn, a NSW PDHPE & HMS teacher and trained Love Bites facilitator, for an honest, practical conversation about teaching this content well.
Here is what is in it for you:
- How to move from "having a chat" to explicit skill-building that starts with the syllabus and outcomes
- What a trauma-informed classroom actually looks like
- Why you connect with students in a way no one-off wellbeing day ever can
Walk away informed on current best practice and clearer on how to structure respectful relationships teaching across 7-10 PDHPE.
