Britain has high rates of STIs, teenage pregnancy and sex education is no longer compulsory. I believe the best way for young people to hear the facts about sex is from other young people. I've been campaigning with Battlefront to bring peer-to-peer sex education to schools.

I want to make some changes to the way sex education is taught in our schools. We've got the highest teen pregnancy rate in Western Europe, and high levels of STIs. I believe peer led education, where young people teach each other about sex, should be part of sex education. It's a way to get facts you need to protect yourself without the cringe...

I had such a busy, amazing and productive time last year with my Battlefront Campaign. It truly gave me opportunities I never could have dreamed of. Although my time with Battlefront is now over, my campaign is still very much alive as promised! In fact, it recently revisited today to present my research to the Welsh Assembly!

Me and Children's Minister Tim Loughton SO THIS IS IT!!! My time with Battlefront has come to an end, BUT what an amazing end it’s turned out to be! This week I had a meting with Tim Loughton, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Children and Families, aka Minister for Children and Families.
It’s been a while since my last blog. In my last post I told you all about my big launch in parliament and I am still so proud of my research with of course a special thanks to dance4life and RESPECT. Last week was World Aids Day. I can’t stress how important it is to promote good sexual health and practicing safe sex around World Aids Day!
The results of Shereece’s sex survey are in and they’re pretty amazing.. To highlight the issues at the heart of her Let’s Talk About Sex campaign, Shereece conducted a survey of schools all around the UK. The questions all related to Sex and Relationships education (SRE). You can download her report here. The results were quite incredible. Here are some of the headlines:

If you follow my campaign you will know that yesterday was the MOST scariest, exciting and nerve-racking day ever! All of our hard work came together for the launch of my research in Parliament! WOW! I have never worked so hard on something soo important to me. It all paid off and couldn't have gone any better! First of all I COULD NOT SLEEP the day before, it just wasn't going to happen... I felt a million emotions in one!

This is my most exciting week of my campaign! Yesterday was a cool kinda start to the week (if you believe the week begins on a Sunday, do people still think that?!?) Anyways I had a photoshoot with two of my sisters and their children, for an article being done on my campaign in the Evening Standard! The shoot was tricky because two of the children are 2 and 3 years old but we all had a good time at the local park!
Back to basics! I have been teaching again! I love just focusing on teaching because it is where all this began, it also my passion AND its essential to my campaign. I went to my old school and team taught with Kayleigh from The Respect Team. Only this lesson was different... SCARY different, because... We. Were. Being. Filmed. Not only were we in my old school, we were talking to Year 11 students... the most challenging audience of all!
For those of you who don’t know, I am going to SBTV’s Battlefront DB8. SBTV is a massive youth network operating originally on Youtube, which MANY young people love... featuring MC’s freestyling and (more recently) artists singing whilst playing guitar. The debate (DB8) will have two panels of young people who will debate on main issues, affecting young people. They will be read statements and put into for and against teams.
