What does RSE Look Like?
The relationships and sex curriculum will be delivered as part of our PSHE curriculum. We ensure that keeping children safe and preventative education remain at the heart of PSHE subjects. Sex education will be delivered through the science curriculum and the PSHE curriculum.
