Sexual harassment in education

Sexual harassment in education is when someone repeatedly makes you feel uncomfortable through physical, verbal, and online messages. It can happen in school, college, and other education settings.

For example, someone might be making jokes about you or sending you unwanted messages or pictures. They might also be making fun of your appearance or trying to touch you without your permission.

It is important to tell someone if you experience sexual harassment. You can talk to a teacher, school counselor, or other trusted adult. They can help you figure out what steps to take next.
