Sex Ed on the Cards

Sex Ed on the Cards is a fun, factual, and LGBTQ+ inclusive resource for delivering effective and engaging relationships and sex education (RSE) to students aged 14+. For too long, this education has focused on dangers and risks, but young people have the right, need, desire, and curiosity to see the bigger sex-ed picture.

The Question, Debate, and Challenge cards provide an opportunity to discuss real-life facts and scenarios, promoting discussion and developing confidence and understanding. With three modes of gameplay – conversation, collaboration, and competition – the cards allow young people to explore their attitudes, beliefs, and values around key topics including body image, consent, pleasure, porn, sexual orientation, and gender identity.

Sex Ed on the Cards brings critical thinking to the table, encouraging:

• Live conversation: The game helps diffuse any awkwardness in face-to-face exchanges about sex and relationships issues. It also acknowledges the benefits of digital literacy, signposting reliable online resources for teens.
• Sexual literacy: The game acknowledges digital natives’ possible awareness of and in-depth exposure to a range of material and helps them interpret what they may already have seen.
• Social action: Made for a generation that cares deeply about equality, diversity, and social justice, these cards introduce relevant modern concepts in a social-action context.

Created by Outspoken Sex Ed and illustrated by Sex Ed Matters – social enterprises passionate about honest conversation around sex and relationships – this card game is an invaluable resource to support relationships and sex education for students aged 14+.
