New guidance for teachers to tackle violence against women and domestic abuse

The Welsh Assembly Government has launched new online guidance, "Teaching about Violence Against Women and Domestic Abuse", which is available on their Personal and Social Education guidance website.

The guidance is designed to support teachers in order to deliver the Assembly Government's key priority under "The Right to be Safe" VAW strategy, of preventing and raising awareness of violence against women and domestic abuse.

The guidance supplements a previous WAG publication, "Information and Guidance on Domestic Abuse: Safeguarding Children and Young People in Wales" (March 2010).
