A PPT with a variety of extensions to give students an idea about what all the fuss is about. The PPT itself is pretty self explanatory, and contains links to a variety of youtube videos (some are animations) as well as the Specials 'Free Nelson Mandela&' single. What a legend!

This is a PPT about pornography. Awkward. On average, young men are exposed to it before they're 10. It can lead to all kinds of personal problems, let alone drastic effects on the social way sex is perceived. Tis is an attempt to educate young people about the health and social effects of pornography, and how drastically in can improve people's lives if they give it up. It has been designed in a way that is flexible to your teaching: print off slides, do presentations, information treasure hunts...up to you! Where do you stand is an activity where each corner of the room is a different opinion (Strongly agree, agree, disagree, strongly disagree) and students move to the corner and discuss. WARNING: DEFINITELY WATCH THE VIDEOS BEFORE YOU SHOW IT TO THE KIDS! Some of this material may be suitable only for sixth form.

This resource is intended to be a quick and easy resource to inform students about puberty. Aimed primarily at 10-14 year olds, it’s a great start for beginning understanding the biological and emotional changes and challenges of this transformation from a child’s to an adults body. It includes videos which explain, in very child friendly terms, the what, how and why of puberty, and has space for class discussion too. Ideal for specialists and non-specialists alike.

A lesson to help students understand and develop their relationship with their own values. It includes activities, youtube videos and some disciplinary literacy around the word value, and where it comes from. A must for any PHSE, citizenship or relationships teacher trying to help students get a grip on their own values in a world which is changing at an increasing pace.

Gender and sexuality can be confusing for students (and teachers!), many of whom do not understand the idea of gender being a spectrum rather than a binary role connected to biological sex. Indeed, most do not understand that gender and sex are different things. This presentation aims to present the different arguments around gender, varying from people who feel that their gender is different from their biological sex (transgender) or those who are biologically intersex (about 1-2% of the global population). It acknowledges that some people are very closed to the idea of transgenderism, whilst acknowledging the biological fact of intersex. It includes and article about Caster Semenya, the South African runner banned from competing in events because her testosterone is too high and told she would need to take medication to address this, as well as youtube videos, graphics, group discussion activities, opinion lines/corners, and written comprehension questions. There are also definition tasks too. Ideal for KS3-5 students. (11-18yr old) A range of tasks that will not fit into an hour, so pick which work for you. Learning questions include: What is gender? What is the difference between ‘intersex’, ‘transgender’, ‘transexual’ and ‘non-binary’? What is a ‘patriarchy’? Is gender a choice? Is gender a spectrum? This is a new resource on a tricky issue: feedback warmly, warmly welcomed. Many thanks.

This is an ambitious project to cover the entire UK citizenship government framework in 26 lessons of increasing difficulty over 5 age groups (11-16). It uses a range of teaching strategies, including individual and team work, developing public speaking skills and active citizenship engagement in the year 8 section of the course. It focuses on students having a keen idea of their own background whilst also being able to ‘sonder’ (appreciate the realness of others) and truly empathise, as well as having a historical understanding of why we are where we are in the world. This lesson starts with the students own identity, before moving on to consider the South African concept of Ubuntu: I am because we are. This lesson Can be bought as part of a package. These schemes use key questions instead of learning objectives which are then used as mini plenaries throughout. Videos and worksheets included as powerpoint slides for ease of access and printing where necessary. Key questions What is identity? What is culture? Is there an ‘us’ and a ‘them’? Challenge: Evaluate the idea of Ubuntu. Feedback always welcome.

A lesson which aims to mythbust many of the global misconceptions about Islam which has led to widespread islamophobia. It focuses mainly on the UK but is globally relevant, and aims to expose the media bias against Muslims, how a tiny minority of people who claim the title of ‘Muslim’ have taken control of the narrative of what it is to be Muslim, and how we can address this. Learning questions include: Identify the meaning of Islamophobia? What are some of the myths surrounding Islam and Muslims? What would be an appropriate response? Why is Islamophobia on the rise? It includes a range of activities, from group work, discussion, individual writeen work and youtube videos. Tasks are differentiated by outcome, and is currently targeted at KS3-4 students. With tweeking it could easily be made into a KS2 resource, as it also includes Muslim art for students to make an anti-Islamophobia wall. I have intentionally put too much into this so you can prune out whatever you wish to.
