Safe relationship campaign — 11 signatures. Status: rejected.
Make comprehensive, age-appropriate education on healthy relationships, consent, coercive control, grooming and domestic abuse a statutory requirement in all UK primary and secondary schools, equipping children to recognise abuse, understand boundaries and build safe relationships.
Children are taught how to stay safe on roads and online, but recognising unhealthy relationships, grooming, manipulation and coercive control is just as important. Abuse does not always begin with violence. It can begin with behaviours mistaken for love, care or affection. The Safe Relationship Campaign calls for age-appropriate, compulsory education from primary school onwards, giving children the knowledge to recognise warning signs, understand consent and boundaries.
