Nursery School Talk PANTS – A Way of Helping Children Feel Safe

Talk PANTS is part of our curriculum and helps children stay safe. Talk PANTS is NSPCC advice and guidance for children, parents, practitioners, and teachers to help children understand that their bodies belong to them, and that they should tell a safe adult they trust if anything makes them feel upset or worried.

Videos and guidance can be found here: https://www.nspcc.org.uk/keeping-children-safe/support-for-parents/pants-underwear-rule/
