Recommendation
The Government should encourage schools to use part of the RSHE grant funding to train teachers on the menstrual and gynaecological health elements of the curriculum. The Department for Education should work with the Department of Health and Social Care and stakeholders such as Wellbeing of Women and the Royal Colleges to ensure that effective training and resources are made available to schools. There are educators and campaigners willing to provide training and resources for limited cost. Adequate training need not be time-consuming. (Recommendation, Paragraph 30)
