LMK offers a prevention programme against relationship abuse, domestic violence and sexual assault that equips young people to have healthy relationships during their teen years and embeds behaviours and expectations that are carried through into adult life.
We offer five workshop topics – the 10 Signs workshop must be completed first, and each additional workshop can be delivered as a stand-alone session, or combined to create a wider relationships education programme.
We believe every young person benefits from a safe space to discuss relationships, and young people with SEND often miss out on these important conversations, even though they may be at greater risk of relationship abuse.
Our inclusive workshops are developed in collaboration with SEND professionals, parents, and young people with lived experience. They are designed to give young people the knowledge, skills, and confidence to speak out, seek support, and stay safe.
Designed to be interactive and discussion-based, our workshops are best suited for students in SEND schools who do not have profound learning difficulties or complex disabilities, to ensure a positive and meaningful experience for all participants.
Our two-part workshop series supports young people to experience positive endings of their relationships in primary school, and build the tools and confidence to form new, healthy relationships in secondary school.
Through group discussion, real-life scenarios, and self-reflection, young people learn the 10 signs of a healthy/unhealthy relationship and develop practical tools and strategies to help themselves and others.
By the end of this course, staff will be able to identify healthy and unhealthy behaviours using the 10 Signs framework. They will practise their approach to having inclusive and positive conversations around different behaviours (including handling tricky situations) and explore opportunities to improve their working relationships, champion best practice and foster happy, productive teams.
Designed for professionals working with young people, ‘How to talk to young people about healthy and unhealthy relationships’, is an interactive and motivational course designed to help you develop the skills required to have an inclusive, accessible, non-judgemental approach to relationship conversations with young people.
By the end of the course, you will understand why relationship education is important and how to teach the 10 Signs framework. You will have practised your approach to having relationship conversations, built confidence and explored the issues affecting young people and their relationships.
