RSHE Curriculum Overview

The documents below outline the 13 different areas of the Relationship, Health and Sex Education curriculum.  You can see the various statements for all of the areas, and next to those the year group that will be taught each of the specific aspects of the curriculum.
 
Most of the curriculum is statutory.  Parents and carers do have the right to withdraw their child from the non-statutory lessons relating to sex education in Year 6 that can be found under the "Changing Adolescent Bodies" area of the curriculum below.  However, we strongly recommend that children take part in these lessons - this is the age where children begin to talk about and ask questions about these matters and it is important that children develop a proper understanding from a reliable source of information so that they do not begin to develop misconceptions.
