Recommendation 6

Acknowledged
Paragraph: 33
Extend compulsory Relationships, Sex and Health Education to post-16 educational settings.
Recommendation
A lack of compulsory RSHE for young people until they are 18 leaves young people making their first steps in the adult world under-supported and less equipped to navigate potentially harmful and dangerous situations and keep themselves safe and healthy in relationships. We recommend that compulsory RSHE is extended to young people in post-16 educational settings.
