How our programme aligns with school and family values and beliefsValues & beliefs
Each school that we work in partnership with has it’s own unique set of values, as does every family within those schools.
At BigTalk Education we stick to factual information which we present in a calm, gentle and age appropriate manner.
Our lessons do not include any reference to religion, however we do teach children that their families will have their own values and beliefs that they may want to discus at home.
At BigTalk Education we have some core values that hold true in all of our work. These are:
Tolerance is to understand that not everybody is the same and have the willingness to accept this.
Honesty is being truthful and open at an age appropriate level, that allows pupils to learn and understand.
Support is to work together with schools and family to provide guidance and care for children and young people.
Respect is valuing each person as an individual of importance, as well as the beliefs of their family and community,
Empower is to equip people with knowledge to keep them safe, healthy and happy.
Sensitivity is having an awareness of the feelings of others and responding accordingly.
Trust is ensuring children and young people have a safe space to learn and discus.
Empathy is the ability to identify and understand the feelings of others and offer them support.

Feedback from school staff on BigTalk Education's Growing Up Safe relationship and sex education programme
"This is our second year with the programme and we wanted to roll this out across the whole school. The sessions were thoroughly informative dealing with issues sensitively but openly. The programme covered a lot of ground effectively. Our children are now confident, knowledgeable and will hopeful grow to be respectful adults once again, a great job. Thank you for spending the day with us."
“Really informative session for Year 3, delivered in a nice age appropriate way. Reinforced e-safety messages that we teach in school.”
"The materials used are at an informative level, without being inappropriate. The language used by the team was at the children's' level so they were able to understand. The children were put at ease, to answer and ask questions. The section on reproduction was very well discussed and paced, to inform the children about sexual relationships, as too were the puberty and period sections. Very good tutors!"
