Secondary Briefing PSHEe Leaders 24 th June, 2015

Agenda

Starter: “If I were President. . . ” • Using ‘If I were president’ as a starting point, consider three things you would change in your local area, in the UK and in the world if you were to win an election. What changes are most likely to happen? What would you personally prefer to see happen? Who else shares such a vision of the future? What needs to change if the preferable future is to become a reality, rather than the probable one? Who is actually working to create such a future? How can we contribute to that preferable future?

"It's not that bad in Mukuru, but I would prefer not to live here. It's different from Nairobi. If it rains there, you don't have to wear gum boots but here because it's so muddy, you must have boots to walk around. There also many sick people here, my family get sick with pneumonia and we are forced to buy medicines, but they are very expensive. If I was the President of Kenya, I would change the environment in Mukuru, especially the roads. I would make them passable. Mud is the problem here. I would try to help the helpless as well. “ Polycarp

"I like maths so I want to be an accountant when I grow up, and work in a bank and encourage people to keep their money safe. If I was President, I would bring better security to Mukuru and also open a hospital here. In Mukuru a lot of people get sick, but when you go to hospital in Nairobi there are far too many people on the ward. If I built a new hospital we could have just five people on each ward. I would also build new roads here, so there are not so many accidents. “ Patricia

"My favourite subject is science because for you to be a doctor, you need to do a lot of science and that is what I want to be a doctor so that I can treat the sick, and help my family and my parents. I think everyone should have medicine. People get sick in Mukuru because they drink dirty water, or they go to the toilet and there is nowhere to wash their hands. Or they get sick because they eat food with dirty hands. Sometimes I get ill with malaria, and I also get stomach problems. " Deriyne www. oxfam. org. uk/education

Latest News in PSHE education The Government has now confirmed that its response to the Commons Education Committee recommendations on statutory PSHE will be made by 26 June. One option might be to say “we are still considering the recommendations” , but hopefully there will be something firmer on Friday. As ever, no guarantees!

PSHE / SRE as a means of reducing violence against women • Recommendations from the UN rapportuer on violence against women and girls that SRE be made compulsory in Britain. The full report has now been published by the UN and the wording of the recommendation on SRE is: • "Ensure a holistic approach to prevention of violence against women and girls by including appropriate and comprehensive education in schools as a compulsory subject, providing adequate training to teachers and other school staff; and developing gender-specific prevention policies". http: //www. sexeducationforum. org. uk/email-your-mp

Latest OFSTED news • • • The updated OFSTED framework was only published last week, but it is immediately clear that the new key judgement on ‘Personal development, behaviour and welfare’ will be of particular importance to PSHE practitioners. The criteria supporting this judgement emphasise, among other things, employability and safety from risks and it is difficult to see how schools will be able to demonstrate effectiveness without a high-quality PSHE programme. In addition to this key judgement, PSHE education makes a significant contribution to a school’s safeguarding strategy. Ofsted’s updated safeguarding guidance for inspectors makes clear that a separate report on safeguarding will always be included within the key judgement on leadership and management, making the subject arguably more integral to the new framework. See document with key points drawn out.

Main title slide NSPCC SCHOOLS SERVICE Always in 354 Green Helen O’Sullivan Area Coordinator - Merseyside

Background to the Service • • Child. Line has been going for nearly 30 years In 2010 we received around 3, 000 contacts every day Over 80% of children were aged 11+ Many spoke about historic worries, or abuses that had been going on for sometime but the child did not have language or understanding that they were abuses at the time • Identified need to reach out to younger children to encourage them to speak to trusted adults sooner • Piloted in 2010 and launched in 2011

Schools Service Aims • To ensure children have an understanding of abuse in all its forms, know how to protect themselves and are aware of sources of help • To provide key safeguarding messages to every child in Year 5 & 6 in UK by 2016 • Visit every primary school every 2 years on rolling programme • Universal preventative service • Delivered by volunteers, supported and trained by staff

Who’s had the service? • Merseyside - visited 244 schools (some multiple times) and seen just under 23, 000 children • Liverpool borough– 79 school (41 due again in next academic year) • Focus on mainstream but non-mainstream deliveries are being booked during quiet times

Structure Assembly: - Introduction to Child. Line and Buddy - Sack of worries exercise - Recap of Definitions of Abuse - Who to turn to / keeping safe discussion - Child. Line Key messages and DVD Going home pack: - Activity pack including Word search & Crossword linked with keep safe messages - Buddy stickers

Line confirmed in an Agreement • Parent carer letter provided although not mandatory

Evaluation We know the Child. Line Schools Service really works from the great feedback we are receiving from children and teachers alike: • 98 % of children we visited understood that they had the right to feel safe • 97 % said that if they had a problem, they now knew it was best to talk about it • 88% thought other children the same age should have the service (10% unsure) • 100% of schools would recommend us

Funding • It is not mandatory to fundraise as we believe all children should receive the service • However each visit does cost the charity funds (£ 4. 5 million per year at present) and 92% of all our money comes from donations – not government • You can support us in 1 of 2 ways; – Whole school sponsored event – One-off event (eg dress down, cake sale etc) • If you’d like to support us please let me know

Fight Against Porn Zombies (FAPZ) • From March to May 2015, we ran a Child. Line F. A. P. Z campaign to spark a debate about the potential negative impact of viewing online porn from a young age. Why we launched the campaign • To raise awareness and provide advice to young people about the harmful implications of an over exposure to porn. The move follows the discovery that nearly one in ten 12 -13 year olds are worried they are addicted to porn. • The poll of nearly 700 12 -13 year-olds in the UK also reveals that around one in five of those surveyed said they'd seen pornographic images that had shocked or upset them and 12 per cent admitted to making or being part of a sexually explicit video.

Fight Against Porn Zombies (FAPZ) • It was a You.
