What's the deal?

This teaching manual is for anyone who wants to educate young people about legal issues. It is aimed at 14 to 16 year olds or year 9 and 10 students. It has information and activities about:

  • the role of people in authority, including police and ticket inspectors
  • sex and gender identity
  • pregnancy
  • discrimination, sexual harassment violence, and vilification
  • getting a job and leaving home.

The activities in this manual encourage young people to think critically about the law and learn about talk about issues with their peers. All the activities have been mapped to the Victorian Education Learning Standards. The manual also includes educator’s notes to help teachers and community educators use it in the classroom.
