Your Brilliant Body: Book 1 (Operation Ouch)

Product Information

Note also that the full programme includes content not covered by the primary curriculum (such as family names for genitals). Please ensure you have referred to your school’s policy for RSHE (Relationships, Sex and Health Education) to ensure its suitability. We're smashing taboos with this exhibition, proving that it's not only fun to talk about everything from burps to belly rumbles and projectile vomit to poo, it's essential in understanding and maintaining a healthy relationship with our bodies. The museum's mission is to inspire all its visitors, including future scientists and inventors, with the story of how ideas can change the world, from the industrial revolution to today and beyond.

In 2019, Chris alongside his twin brother Xand, put competing health theories to the test with the help of 30 other pairs of identical twins in 'Twinsitute' for BBC Two. The pair also hosted 'Planet Child' a ‘landmark perspective on global childhood development' for ITV. You should ensure you are up-to-date with best practice in RSHE teaching before delivering this content.

The exhibition will open at an exciting time in the development of the Science and Industry Museum, as it continues to undergo a multi-million-pound regeneration project that will see brand new spaces opened and significant improvements made to some of its best-loved galleries. Although this means some areas will remain temporarily closed, there is still plenty to do, see and enjoy as visitors explore 250 years of innovations and ideas that change the world. Sex education is not statutory at primary: parents have the right to withdraw their children from this element of the curriculum. See DfE RSHE guidance (paragraph 45-50).
