NSPCC Pants Campaign

In every class in our school the children have been discussing the NSPCC’s Underwear Rule.

This is designed to teach pupils how to stay safe from sexual abuse, without giving

explicit information or telling scary stories or even using the term “sexual abuse.”

In the lesson, children will learn about the ‘PANTS’ acrostic, which stands for:

• Privates are private

• Always remember your body belongs to you

• No means no

• Talk about secrets that upset you

• Speak up, someone can help

The lesson is be delivered in a way that’s fully age-appropriate.

More information about the Underwear Rule, including a short film and a parent

guide can be found at nspcc.org.uk/underwearrule.
