More than 6,000 Jersey schoolchildren have been taught how to spot signs of child sexual exploitation.
Experts in child protection from across the Department for Children, Young People, Education and Skills, including staff in the Jersey Youth Service, have been working with schools to create information packs delivered in PSHE lessons.
Jersey's Youth Service will also be holding assemblies to help children and young people to recognise the signs of child sexual abuse and who they can speak to to get support.
The Department for Children, Young People, Education and Skills says it works alongside the Safeguarding Partnership Board, the island's police forces and community organisations to tackle the issue and support victims.
