Relationships and Sex Education has a crucial role to play in preparing children for their lives now and in the future, as adults and future parents. In RSE we teach pupils about sexual and emotional health, and about family life and the exercise of personal responsibility towards other individuals and the broader community. We aim to work in partnership with parents and complement the discussions that naturally take place at home. Parents of secondary age pupils have the right to withdraw their child from sex education until three terms before they turn 16. If you would like to discuss your child’s involvement in RSE please contact the Deputy Head Pastoral.
Our RSE curriculum includes session led by our nursing team on physical changes and contraception alongside materials produced by the following organisations.
