PSEA addresses the misuse of power and trust for sexual gain. It helps students recognize unsafe behaviours such as inappropriate touching, offers of gifts, or manipulative attention. Adolescents learn that both boys and girls can experience exploitation, often from people they depend on. Such acts are violations of rights and laws under the Children’s Act (2005) and Sexual Offences Act (2013). Learners explore the difference between healthy relationships and coercive ones, identify trusted adults, and understand that reporting is protection, not betrayal.
