Here at Warstones, we are proud of the progressive and comprehensive PSHE curriculum that we deliver to all children. Governors and parents were consulted on the content to ensure a wide range of appropriate content. Workshops and information sessions for parents were also delivered and we continuously seek advice from the S4S Advisor to ensure we meet all statutory requirements.

RSE in the curriculum

RSE is about the emotional, social and cultural development of pupils, and involves learning about relationships, sexual health, sexuality, healthy lifestyles, diversity and personal identity. RSE involves a combination of sharing information and exploring issues and values.

From September 2020, Relationships Education and Health Education became statutory for all primary children, in all primary schools. This means that parents and carers cannot withdraw their child from these lessons. However, you are able to request that your child is withdrawn from lessons about Sex Education taught as part of Relationships and Health Education, which are not statutory objectives covered in the science national curriculum- these areas are marked with an * on the long term overview. However, we do strongly encourage that all children take part in these vital areas of the curriculum.

If you have any queries or concerns, please do contact your Key Stage email address or call in at school and we will be happy to discuss this with you.
