RSE

Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) Curriculum

Learning about the emotional, social and physical aspects of growing up will give children and young people the information, skills and positive values to have safe, fulfilling relationships and help them take responsibility for their own well-being.

From September 2020, Relationships and Sex Education (RSE), along with Health Education, has been made statutory, and forms part of the National Curriculum. This new guidance focuses on healthy relationships and keeping children safe in the modern world. It also covers a wide range of topics relating to physical and mental health, wellbeing, safeguarding and healthy relationships.

These lessons are carefully planned and we follow a well-known scheme of work written by staff at The Christopher Winter Project. In advance of the curriculum being taught in the summer term, we invite all parents to meet with teachers to understand the content and context of how this is being taught.
