Declarations
:
: This trial has received ethical approval by Swansea University ethics committee, 29/10/2019 Ref: 2018–0272-259. The Guide Cymru is being adopted as part of the National Curriculum of Personal Social Health Education (PSHE) in schools in Wales. Therefore, it is delivered to all children within the year group (age 13–14 years) at the school at the teachers’ discretion, without consent from parents/ caregivers. The lack of informed consent by pupils and parents was discussed in detail between the authors (NSG) and Swansea University ethical reviewers. The Ethical Committee approved it on the basis that completed questionnaires contained no personal information to preserve anonymity. All methods were carried out in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations.
