This episode opens up one of the most important and often avoided conversations in parenting and education.

Hosted by Emma Goldsmith, with insights from Matt Allen (Senior Boys Boarding House Parent and Teacher) and Gus Faulkner (Head of Boarding and CHE) we explore how to approach conversations about sex with honesty, confidence, and care.

From early foundations to navigating tricky questions, this episode highlights that the “talk” isn’t just one moment it’s an ongoing dialogue. Expect practical advice, thoughtful perspectives, and reassurance for parents figuring it all out.

This is one conversation you don’t want to skip.
