Chanel Contos' petition for earlier consent education in schools continues to make waves in Australia and right around the world... and now a Newcastle Grammar student has come forward to join the growing list of alleged sexual assault anecdotes.

Nick, Jess and Ducko chat with Newcastle Grammar's head of school, Erica Thomas, about the school's response to one of their students joining the petition. 

Erica says the student is brave to have spoken up about her experience, and that her door is always open to any students, past or present, who need her help.
