Debates about what should or shouldn’t be taught in RSE can so often be driven by misinformation, fear-mongering, and political agendas — but at what cost? Who does this benefit, and crucially, who does it harm? Evidence-based research has proven that high-quality sex education can not only protect young people from countless harms, but give them the tools to navigate the real and online world with more agency, more empathy, and more control. Let’s Talk About Sex (Education) is a one-off documentary examining some of the (many) reasons why a comprehensive and inclusive sex education curriculum matters. It features the voices of sex educators, journalists, students and others, all of whom wish they'd learned, wish they'd been taught, more.
Let’s Talk About Sex (Education) was produced and presented by Lucy Carr. It was mastered by Benjamin Williams. This is a Broccoli Production.
