I am going to look further into that. Thank you!
I'm not sure if schools run differently in the UK so please
forgive me if this is ignorant, but does your school provide you
with a set lesson plan or specific things that you need to cover?
Or is the responsibility left to you to teach what you would like
as long as it includes health, responsibility..etc?
Is the program, or PSHE, similar to character education? Is it
something that you think schools in the UK would benefit from?
I appreciate your response! I'm always looking for insight as to
how other communities work. :)
