Description

This unit explores the physical and emotional changes during puberty. Pupils learn about body development, understand and manage changing emotions, develop self-awareness skills, and learn about personal hygiene practices to maintain health during adolescence.

As Year 8 pupils are experiencing or approaching puberty, they need comprehensive understanding of the physical and emotional changes occurring in their bodies and minds. This unit explores puberty as a natural developmental process, explains bodily changes, and provides practical guidance for managing emotions and maintaining hygiene. At this stage, clear, accurate information helps pupils to navigate adolescence confidently.
