Understanding the Sexual Age of Consent in the UK
This training provides a comprehensive overview of the sexual age of consent in the UK by examining the legal framework—including key provisions of the Sexual Offences Act 2003—and delving into the historical, social, and practical aspects of consent. It explains the rationale behind setting the age at 16, addresses legal nuances such as close-in-age exemptions and defences, and emphasizes the importance of informed and enthusiastic consent. Additionally, the training equips professionals with the knowledge to recognize and respond to coercion, understand the dynamics of power and trust, and implement effective safeguarding measures. Through case studies, scenario-based learning, and practical guidance on multi-agency collaboration, participants are prepared to balance children’s rights with their protection, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for young people.
