Period Dignity
Support for Schools
The Period Dignity Pilot Scheme addresses the specific needs of the school sector.
CCEA is supporting this project by providing curriculum materials and an online Teacher Professional Learning Programme for all schools in Northern Ireland, including all-boys’ schools. Inclusive education on periods and menstrual wellbeing is key to giving all young people opportunities to understand and challenge common misconceptions and related stigma.
CCEA is requesting that schools nominate a Period Dignity Key Contact for communication and training purposes via this online form. Larger post-primary schools may wish to identify an additional key contact.
These representatives will be notified of further details regarding the Period Dignity and Menstrual Wellbeing resources and Teacher Professional Learning webinars.
All queries in relation to the Period Dignity policy and guidance document from schools should be directed to CCEA Period Dignity contacts.
