Protective behaviours' education is a compulsory component of the Australian curriculum, reflecting the crucial need to empower children with knowledge and skills to navigate safe and unsafe situations. Schools bear the responsibility to teach these concepts effectively, ensuring that children gain essential life skills in a secure environment.
Teachers must possess the necessary skills and language to cover these challenging topics effectively. They must be readily available and approachable to children who may need their support. Our programs are designed to equip both experienced and less experienced teachers with the tools to empower students and facilitate these conversations confidently.
Empower Our Kids was established to support schools in meeting their educational mandates. We offer a range of workshops, seminars, and programs tailored to enhance teacher readiness and effectiveness in delivering protective behaviours' education. Let us assist your school in ensuring that every child receives the knowledge and skills they need to stay safe.
The teacher workshops offer flexible and customised options to suit the specific requirements of your school or organisation. Whether you prefer to book all ten topics or select the most relevant ones, we can ensure that the content aligns with your goals and priorities.
