Pupils deserve inclusive and stigma-busting period education
Education about periods became a compulsory part of the school curriculum in 2020. This is a step in the right direction, but it’s only the start.
Feedback from teachers, parents and pupils has been clear: there are many gaps in existing menstrual health education. Together with Terri Harris & Lily Hatcher, who are experts in menstrual and sexual health, we have developed a stigma-busting and engaging curriculum-related resource for teachers to use in classrooms across the UK.
We have made this resource as comprehensive, practical and easy to use as possible. All the lesson plans are designed to flex to support learners’ diverse needs including gender and cultural inclusivity, SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) and neurodiversity.
