Relationship & Sex Education 2025

Dear Parents,

During this half term and the first part of the summer term, we will be delivering Relationship and Sex Education for Years 1 - 6.  These lessons will take place as part of our PSHE curriculum.
​
If you would like to view the Relationship and Sex Education materials that we will be using, then you would be more than welcome to request this.  Please could you contact your child’s class teacher to do this.  We feel that it is important the children take part in these sessions as part of our on-going programme of personal and social and health education.  I would like to emphasise that all themes covered are taught in an age-appropriate way.  Key themes explored within certain year groups are as follows:

If you would like to discuss anything further please do not hesitate to talk with your child’s class teacher, Mrs Adnett, Miss Garrett or Miss Wood.  If you do not wish your child to take part in these sessions, then please can you let Miss Wood know in writing that this is your decision.  We will of course make alternative provision for your child during this time.

Yours sincerely
Becky Wood
