The step from PG to 12A is quite significant. Treatments are now aimed at young teenagers rather than children.
- Discriminatory language can be more aggressive at 12A rating, however it must not be endorsed by the work as a whole.
- Drug misuse may be portrayed as opposed to merely referenced at 12A.
- Moderate physical and psychological threat is permitted at 12A rating, yet disturbing sequences still must not be prolonged.
- More detailed dangerous imitable behaviour is allowed at 12A as long as not dwelled upon.
- 'Moderate' language is allowed at 12A as opposed to 'mild' at PG and occasional strong language (eg. 'fuck') is permitted.
- No sexual context is permitted with regards to nudity up until 12A, where it is permitted as long as brief and discreet.
- Sexual activity starts to be allowed to be portrayed as opposed to merely referenced or implied at 12A, but in a discreet manner.
- More mature themes are acceptable at 12A and their treatment should be suitable for young teenagers as opposed to children.
- Moderate violence is more acceptable at 12A as long as not dwelled upon. Sexual violence can be implied.
