Live online session on sexual ethics and beyond consent – Wednesday 11 February 2026, 4pm–4:45pm*

Our next School Plus online themed event will be taking place on 11 February 2026 (4–4:45pm), featuring expert guest speaker:

Elly Hanson, Clinical Psychologist and Researcher

Elly is a Clinical Psychologist and researcher with a focus on tackling abuse and other harms towards children, and is more widely involved in supporting young people to flourish and enjoy positive relationships. She is Research Lead at Fully Human, an initiative of the PSHE Association, and in this role authored a far-reaching report on pornography and an essay series on sex and ethics in the digital age. Other ways she supports good quality PSHE include research with young people and synthesis and analysis of evidence.

Elly also works with law enforcement, a range of civil society organisations, and survivors. For over ten years she worked with CEOP (the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre, part of the National Crime Agency) and led their development of a preventive education resource for schools, Respecting me, you, us: Building healthy relationships and creating positive cultures. She has authored a variety of academic papers and chapters, including those on online abuse and how the ‘tech freedom’ ideology has been conducive to it.

During this event, attendees will have the opportunity to network and share ideas with other School Plus members, and participate in a live Q&A where we’ll answer questions and highlight guidance and resources related to the event's theme.
