Our student program specifically supports and aligns with the four dimensions of ‘Respect Matters’ and consent education for senior students.
Our strength based approach enables students from Year 9 – 12 to progress through a series of modules with clear outcomes linking to the Respect Matters curriculum and ACARA Learning Areas. The overall aim of our programs are to build greater agency in the young people we work with.
Through cultivating an awareness of the pressures that come from gender stereotypes, practising activities that grow emotional literacy and building deeper connection and empathy with peers, young people are able to develop the skills to better look after themselves and others, and to make better choices.
Our program content consists of four developmentally appropriate, sequential modules, with clear outcomes, encapsulating the four dimensions of Australian Curriculum Respectful Relationships, PLUS additional content to support emotional learning skills.
1. UNDERSTANDING RESPECT
Respect is about treating people fairly, recognising and appreciating the differences between people, taking their preferences into consideration, acknowledging the rights of others and is important in developing a sense of self.
2. RELATIONSHIP SKILLS
The ability to build, manage and sustain respectful relationships requires personal and social skills and emotional intelligence.
3. EVALUATING OPTIONS
Maintaining respectful relationships requires students to identify, gather and sort information and ideas, evaluate this information and make informed choices.
4. RESPECTFUL ACTIONS
Relationships can be strengthened when students take respectful and safe action, both in groups and as individuals, to protect, enhance and advocate for themselves and others.
