The Personal Safety Education Programme has to be a part of the school curriculum and the system here. Two years back, when Arpan started the programme in our school, it was one year programme, not a one-off session. All of the teachers were made aware. Personal Safety Education lessons were conducted in every single class first, and then individual sessions were conducted with children. Because it was intensive, we were able to detect 7 cases of CSA in our school. I was shocked beyond imagination that this was happening in my school. Because of the curriculum and the content of the PSE programme, we were able to take the necessary actions to stop the ongoing abuse.
