Description & Learning objectives

This course is a comprehensive guide to understanding sexual abuse and sexual development in children and young people. The course explains how children and young people sexually develop, exploring what it means to have a healthy sexual development.

  • To understand the normal sexual development of children and young people
  • To recognise the importance of supporting a young person’s sexual development and sexuality
  • To know how to work with the complex issues that sexuality and sexual health bring, and understand them in the wider context of a young person’s development

  • To develop a greater understanding of the legal and policy framework surrounding sexuality and sexual health for young people in care
