Prevention and education are fundamental to our mission to halve violence against women and girls in a decade, and that includes supporting our education system to teach children about respectful and healthy relationships and consent.

As part of the Safer Streets Mission, I regularly engage with colleagues across Government including those at the Department for Education.
