Tender opening soon: Respectful Relationships & Consent Education
Applications are about to open for new programs supporting the theme Respectful Relationships and Consent Education, for inclusion in the Department of Education’s Student Wellbeing external programs catalogue.
For program authors, this provides an opportunity to place their content in front of all public schools across New South Wales.
Applications will be sought via NSW eTendering – interested providers are able to register on the website.
Catalogue overview
All programs in the Student Wellbeing external programs catalogue have been assessed against quality standards to provide proven, positive outcomes for students. In order to be included, the programs have had to meet a range of criteria: they need to be evidence-based, relevant and inclusive, as well as aligning to the current curriculum and key departmental documents.
Launched in 2022, the Student Wellbeing external programs catalogue currently includes close to 60 quality assured programs. The offering is updated regularly, with themes identified through school-based data and independent research.
Included is also a selection of mental health and wellbeing programs delivered in partnership between the Department of Education, government agencies, universities and mental health organisations and provided to schools free of charge.
