For young parents, early school leaving can also have disastrous long-term consequences for their children. This guidebook is designed to help school staff, parents and communities work towards making their school a welcoming and supportive place for pregnant and parenting students to be.
Present pregnant and proud explores what schools can do and documents good examples of schools around Australia. These schools provide a showcase of outstanding achievement of innovation and social justice in the retention of pregnant and parenting students in education. Present pregnant and proud offers a model policy for schools and systems and provides recommendations for further action.
Everyone is Special provides advice to teachers from a broad range of perspectives on sexuality education. It confronts the moral panic about 'political correctness', especially the intolerance, bigotry and hatred that characterises the current political landscape. Taken together, the voices in Everyone is Special help teachers unsderstand the social and cultural aspects of human sexuality, particularly the different identities and needs of minority groups of people in our school communities. The purpose of this text is to provide a resource for curriculum innovators who are developing and implementing quality curriculum, that is, curriculum which includes a gender focus. Material has been drawn from an impressive and diverse range of project teacher work over the past two and a half years, as well as input from our university-based colleagues. |
