In March 2011 the government launched the Call to End Violence Against Women and Girls Action Plan.

The Action Plan brings together a range of cross cross-government commitments to tackling violence against women and girls. There are important references in this document to preventing violence from a young age including teaching sexual consent with the curriculum, reducing sexual and sexist bullying in schools and reducing the access of children to harmful material on the internet.
