12/12A rating and what applies














12/12A: Suitable for 12+ audiences. May contain material that is not suitable for those under 12.

Discrimination: Discriminatory language or behaviour must not
be endorsed by the work as a whole. Aggressive
discriminatory language or behaviour is unlikely to be
acceptable unless clearly condemned.

Drugs:Misuse of drugs must be infrequent and should not be
glamorized or give instructional detail.

Imitable behavior:No promotion of potentially dangerous behavior
which children are likely to copy. No glamorization of
realistic or easily accessible weapons such as knives.
No endorsement of anti-social behavior.

Language:There may be moderate language. Strong language may
be permitted, depending on the manner in which it is
used, who is using the language, its frequency within the
work as a whole and any special contextual justification.

Nudity:There may be nudity, but in a sexual context it must be
brief and discreet.

Sex:Sexual activity may be briefly and discreetly portrayed.
Moderate sex references are permitted, but frequent
crude references are unlikely to be acceptable.

Threat:There may be moderate physical and psychological
threat and horror sequences. Although some scenes
may be disturbing, the overall tone should not be.
Horror sequences should not be frequent or sustained.

Violence:There may be moderate violence but it should not
dwell on detail. There should be no emphasis on
injuries or blood, but occasional gory moments may be
permitted if justified by the context.
Sexual violence may only be implied or briefly and
discreetly indicated, and its depiction must be justified
by context.
