NSPCC: New & Updated Resources available & Summer School Fundraising Event
After an extensive programme of development work in the NSPCC School’s Service has resulted in a range of new and updated resources designed to support schools and education professionals.
Early Years and Primary age-range:
Partnered with the PSHE Association to create our Talk PANTS resources – these are tailored lesson plans and activities for early years and primary-school aged children and include specialist SEND resources.
Watch the new introductory film about the Talk PANTS additional needs materials.
Primary age-range:
Speak out Stay safe programme (for ages 5-11) empowers children to recognise the signs of abuse and understand how to get help. We’ve recently developed a new suite of supplementary lesson plans, including those for children who have additional needs and disabilities. These can be used to further embed important safeguarding messages throughout the academic year.
Speak out Stay safe alternative provisions: Designed specifically for practitioners to deliver to children aged 5-11 in alternative provision settings. This flexible Toolkit covers types of abuse; How to speak out; You matter (children’s rights), as well as guidance on using the resource and other support available. There’s information here: Speak out Stay safe | NSPCC Learning.
Digital Citizenship Resources by Common Sense Media: The NSPCC works in partnership with Common Sense Media to offer resources for schools to use. The resources help build online resilience with easy-to-use lessons, which include videos, exercises and activities that empower young people. Materials are also included for parents and carers within every lesson. Local NSPCC Schools Coordinators can discuss the resources with schools and give them access.
Transition to secondary and secondary age-range:
Talk Relationships (ages 10+) supports schools in delivering inclusive, high‑quality relationships and sex education. The offer includes free e‑learning for school leaders and teachers, free lesson plans (including SEND resources), and a whole‑school approach framework to help pupils understand healthy relationships and seek support when needed. School leaders can find out more about the latest resources via a webinar on Thursday 11 June, 4–5pm, or by accessing the recording on demand. The sign‑up link is here: Talk Relationships: school leaders webinar - NSPCC My Learning.
NSPCC Summer of Fun 2026 is all about getting children active, having fun and raising funds to support the NSPCC’s vital life changing services, such as Childline. Any primary school or nursery can take part across the UK and Channel Islands. Everything is provided that is needed for a successful event.

You can turn fun in the sun into pounds that will help protect children and support the NSPCC’s direct work in schools – like Speak out, Stay safe and Talk PANTS.
