Through use of an ethnographic approach, this PhD project seeks to explore:

  1. The perceived impact of age disparities and intersecting power inequalities on young people's freedom to consent in relationships
  2. Young people's experiences of learning about, and teachers' experiences of delivering content related to, freedom to consent and power inequalities in their Relationships and Sex Education (RSE)
