Relationships, Sex and Health Education
From September 2020, the Department for Education (DfE) have made Relationships Education and Health Education compulsory in all schools. The new guidance focuses on a number of important areas, including forming healthy relationships and keeping safe in in the modern world. It also covers a wide range of topics relating to physical and mental health, first-aid and changes adolescent body. To access this guidance, please use the DfE Expectations link below.
The DfE have also recommended that schools teach age appropriate Sex Education in primary schools. At Langold Langold Dyscarr Community School, we have chosen to teach Sex Education in Year 6. All of these lessons will follow the Christopher Winter Project scheme of work, which is a nationally approved resource.
