RSE

At Shirestone Academy we value the many different cultures, and religions that make us a diverse multicultural school. RSE is taught in a way which is complementary to the wider ethos, values, and principles of the work we do at Shirestone Academy.

 

The aims of relationships and sex education (RSE) at our school are to:

 

2. Statutory requirements

As a maintained primary school, we must provide relationships education to all pupils as per section 34 of the Children and Social work act 2017.

The Relationships Education, RSE, and Health Education (England) Regulations 2019 have made Relationships Education compulsory in all primary schools.

3. Definition

RSE is about the emotional, social, cultural and physical development of pupils, and involves learning about relationships, healthy lifestyles, diversity and personal identity.

RSE involves a combination of sharing information, exploring issues and values.

There is often concern that RSE will encourage sexual experimentation however evidence shows that those who receive effective RSE at school are more likely to delay first sexual activity and to use contraception.
