Safeguarding Curriculum

Healthy and Safe Relationships

What we do as a school...

NSPCC Pants

At Eaves, we begin educating our children on how to keep themselves safe from Nursery onwards.

When's the right time to talk PANTS?

Every family is different, and when and where you have these conversations may depend on your child's age, or how grown up they are - it's all about whatever feels natural for you and them.

Some examples of times you can talk PANTS are:

After school – if they've had a lesson on personal relationships or Talk PANTS at school, ask them what they remember when they get home.

Bathtime – you could start a conversation when you're running your child's bath, or helping them get dressed.

Car journeys – this can be a great time to talk, and your child will have plenty of time to ask questions if they need.

Reading our new PANTS storybook together.

Singing – sing along to our PANTS song with Pantosaurus!

Swimming – a great time to say that what's covered by swimwear is private.

Walking – walking home from school, or a weekend walk to the shops can help you both feel more at ease as you stroll and chat.

Watching TV – if a TV show features a sensitive storyline, you can encourage them to talk about anything that upsets them.

Speak out Stay safe

Buddy - Helping you to speak out and stay safe

Speak out Stay safe is a safeguarding programme that aims to equip a generation of children with the knowledge they need to stay safe from abuse and neglect.

It provides resources for primary schools, home educators and practitioners in alternative provisions to help children aged 5 to 11 years understand:

abuse in all its forms and how to recognise the signs of abuse

that abuse is never a child’s fault and they have the right to be safe

where to get help and the sources of help available to them, including Childline.
