MAKE SELF DEFENCE A MANDATORY TOPIC AS PART OF THE P.E CURRICULUM IN SCHOOLS.
Self defence lessons need to be made mandatory in schools both primary and secondary.Needs to be taught to girls and boys. It is a VERY CRUCIAL subject that needs to be taught as it could save a child's life. The situations that would be taught would be a potential rape,kidnapping or physical abuse.
As distressing as this topic may be, it NEEDS to be taught in schools as it could save the person's life in both their childhood and adulthood. In England 2016-17 there were 43,522 sexual offence cases recorded against children under 16. Police have also recorded 6,009 rapes of children under the age of 13. And a further 6,299 rapes of children under 16. The hardest part about sexual assault is the fact that it is usually hidden from public view and many victims feel embarrassed or feel blamed.
