| Teens In Between & Are We There Yet? 3 workshop sessions for years 8-9 (ages 12-14) and years 9-10 (ages 14-15). Young people today live in a time of rapid, ongoing and unparalleled social change and upheaval. Media exposure to violence, sexual images, escalating levels of family breakdowns and secular disconnected communities all impact them in some way. Therefore it is extremely important that personal and social development education is available to them. These workshops provide a secure learning platform for teenagers because they need information about sexuality and reproduction that is appropriate to their age, experiences, values and cultural background without undermining the school's ethos. They also need to be able to critically evaluate media and social messages they receive about ‘having the perfect body’ as they navigate their way through puberty. Download our full info pack
