Body Education 

At Baxter Primary School, we are working with Kelly Nash to educate our students about body education in a respectful, age-appropriate manner. 

Further information and topic discussions are attached. 

Department policy states:

• Sexuality and consent education are part of the Victorian Curriculum, mandated for Government and Catholic schools in Victoria.
• The teaching of consent in all government schools in an age-appropriate way from Foundation to Year 12 is mandatory.
• Comprehensive sexuality education is most effective when it has a whole-school learning approach and is underpinned by a strong research evidence base.
• Schools are not required to seek parental permission for the inclusion of sexuality or consent education.
• A parent/carer may decide not to allow their child to participate in sexuality or consent education.

The following timetable will be followed by our students, this year.
