Flowcharts were created by Stirling, Falkirk and Clackmannanshire Education departments to help schools deal with incidents of HSB and to better support the young people involved.
Managing & Preventing Harmful Sexual Behaviour
The flowcharts sit within the wider scope of the Management of Sexual Behaviour, along with other approaches such as TAC meetings, CARM, and the teaching of Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood (RSHP).
