But It’s Not Fair is first a story: absorbing, accessible and led by friendship. Its wider purpose is to help readers recognise coercion, talk safely and know where responsible help begins.
Use the novel with clear ground rules, a prepared safeguarding route and Freedom Charity’s accompanying PSHE Association Quality Mark lesson resources. The Quality Mark applies to the resources, not the novel.
