The teaching of consent in all Victorian government schools is mandatory (see Sexuality and Consent Education policy). The Consent Education Guidance supports schools to teach students about consent in an age-appropriate way from Foundation to Year 12.
As with all areas of the curriculum, teachers should use their professional judgement to determine the appropriateness of any given resource in terms of being age appropriate and suitable for the needs of the students they teach. The Guidance provides and outline of available resources and supports for teaching consent at all levels.
