Welcome

TeenBoundariesUK is the only charity (No. 1133137) in the UK solely devoted to stopping sexual bullying and encouraging positive gender relationships. TeenBoundariesUK can support schools in delivering high quality SRE.

One of the things that young people consistently say about SRE is that it is too focused on providing factual information on topics like contraception and STIs, and that there is not enough attention on giving young people the skills they need to manage relationships and on clarifying attitudes and values. This means that young people are not getting the support they need on crucial issues such as: sexual bullying, gender, consent and dealing with pressure. These are the issues that the TeenBoundariesUK programme focuses on by providing 1hour workshops out of a programme of 4 workshops in secondary schools. Schools can choose delivery of Lesson 1/2 or all lessons 1-4. Split over 4 weeks, mornings or split over 2/2 hour sessions. Flexibility for schools is our number one priority (please see Training/What we do pages).

We provide role-play and scenario-based workshops for targeted students, generic (male and female), female and male skewed. We also provide mentoring for selected students. The workshops are suitable for 11-18 year olds, with our target schools Years 8, 9, 10 and 11. We are also able to train teachers and multi-agency workers on how deliver these lessons.

Events

Until recently, sexually exploitative situations between young people, for example in dating contexts or peer-to-peer social contexts have not been fully addressed as a public issue. Sexual violence taking place in ‘social scenarios’ such as parties, in dating relationships, or between students is often still not acknowledged. Additionally, new technologies offered by mobile phones, digital imaging and the internet contribute to creating forms of sexual assault that the law and society have difficulty defining as assault.

TeenBoundariesUk is working with Hertfordshire County Council's multi-partner agencies to provide guidance on Addressing Sexual Exploitation and Sexual Offences with young people. For more information please email info@teenboundaries.co.uk.

We are looking forward to a 33-hour project with a large comprehensive school in Luton in the new school year.

We are now taking bookings for January 2011 and onwards.

TeenBoundariesUk is currently applying for urgent funding and hopes to achieve success in this, to enable schools with low/no budgets to be able to recieve no-cost workshops.
