Petition Action

Overhaul the PSH(C)E curriculum in England to make it fit for a modern world.

Petition Details

To change the PSH(C)E curriculum to include topic such as rape culture and sexual harassment as this has been shown to be a major issue in our countries education system as well as including non heterosexual relationships and LGBTQ+ in the entirety of the curriculum not just in one lesson.

Additional Information

The current curriculum is simply not fit for purpose and does not properly educate children about the normality of LGBTQ+ and as shown in the everyone’s invited campaign appropriate attitudes to women, sex and consent.

It is time for a curriculum that is consistent across England with a government made curriculum during the making of which experts and young people have been consulted to make sure it includes everything that is needed to help students function in their adult lives.
