The Petition That Exposed The Ugly Truth About Schools & Sex

Former Sydney private school girl Chanel Contos has helped thousands of people share their horrific experiences of sexual assault by fellow pupils, which has prompted a petition calling for sex and consent education to be taught at a younger age.

The Quicky examines why at even some of the most elite schools this continues to be a devastating problem for young people, and what we can do to bring about positive change in attitudes and behaviours.
