Raise student awareness of abusive relationships between young people withthis assembly and more

Tackling domestic violence has become a hot topic in education circles.  The government has announced plans to reshape the PSHE curriculum from 2011 to include lessons in gender equality and preventing violence in relationships.  

Whether you agree with the introduction of lessons on domestic violence for children as young as five, there is no doubt about the extent of the problem amongst young people. Recent research by the NSPCC found that increasing numbers of young people are involved in abusive relationships with other teenagers and the government estimates up to one million women experience at least one incident of domestic abuse every year.

Tackling such sensitive subjects can sometimes be tricky, so the team at www.teaching-resources-uk.com have developed an assembly plan to help students begin to understand how bad relationships can affect them, and where to go for help.

This assembly is just 1 of 48 assemblies available from their website.  Their ready to use assembly plans have been created to help you deliver engaging and topical ks3 and ks4 assemblies throughout the year. Each assembly includes a PDF overview and a professional looking PowerPoint presentation.
