The Evaluation of Speak Out Stay Safe (TESSE): Briefing Paper for Primary Schools

Abstract

Who is this briefing paper for?
This paper summarises the findings from the independent evaluation of the NSPCC’s Speak Out Stay Safe Programme (SOSS) and is aimed at primary school Head Teachers and Safeguarding Leads. It will also be useful for all those involved in commissioning, designing and delivering Relationships Education and PSHE.
Why is it important?
Relationships Education or its equivalent is delivered in schools across the UK and became a statutory part of the curriculum in primary schools in England in September 2020. Learning from this evaluation can assist schools in delivering this important aspect of children’s learning and development.
