| Students recognise that everyone has the right to feel valued and be safe, and, in this regard, understand their rights and obligations and behave responsibly. |
| Overarching Learning Outcome 13 |

| What is Protective Behaviours? |
| Protective Behaviours is a living skills and personal safety program. The aim is to strengthen the resilience of children as they grow and develop. It focuses on giving students life skills to protect themselves from abusive situations and on teaching children to avoid a wide range of potentially unsafe situations. |
| |
| Why do we need Protective Behaviours? |
- Because 85% of abused children are abused by someone known and trusted by them.
- To help protect children as we simply cannot be with them every minute of the day.
- To empower people with the right to feel safe and act to keep themselves safe.
- To give children and adults permission to talk about problems they face.
