Period education made simple
This year’s brand-new resources have been created to help students navigate puberty, first periods and the menstrual cycle; addressing both physical and emotional changes to instil confidence.
Covering three key topics (First Period, Period Power, Hormones and Emotions), all resources are tagged with age stickers (8-14, 10-14, 12-14) so you can choose what content suits your class best.
The resources include:
- Teacher guide – Discover an overview of the content to easily plan your session and pick the resources that are right for your class.
- Card packs – Explore scenarios, guidance, strategies and hacks with these engaging cards designed to inspire positive, empowering and inclusive conversations.
- Interactive quizzes – Consolidate students’ learning with our three themed quizzes covering the key learnings.
Whether you’re looking to run a 15-minute tutor time session, a one-off hour-long lesson, or a series of lessons, the resources are designed to be flexible to suit your schedule and class needs.
Why not download the Teacher Guide to explore the full set of resources in more detail and explore the curriculum links for each nation.
