The Consultation Process
Since September 2020, it has been a statutory requirement that all schools in England and Wales are teaching Relationships, Sex and Health Education as a fundamental part of the curriculum. As part of implementing the RSHE curriculum, schools must have consulted with pupils, parents, staff and governors to ensure there is a general consensus on our approaches to policy and the curriculum content.
Where are we at in the process?
The consultation is now closed. Thank you to all parents/ carers who contributed their feedback. All materials that were presented at the virtual meetings can be found below. The new RSHE curriculum will be running from September 2021.
The RSHE Policies - there are two versions, one of which has been tailored for pupils with SEND.
The PSHE Curriculum Overview- please note, the E-Safety strands are taught using an additional scheme of work. There is a link to this below.
