As part of our commitment to developing the whole child, our school provides Relationships, Sex, and Health Education (RSHE) sessions from EYFS to Year 6.
Relationships and Health Education became statutory in all primary schools in the Summer term of 2021, with schools being advised to adopt an additional age-appropriate Sex Education programme.
At St. Joseph’s, our RSHE curriculum is part of our Personal Development Curriculum, which celebrates the uniqueness of each individual and develops the whole person to become responsible and respectful members of the community who positively contribute to public life as adults.
The programme selected for use at St. Joseph’s is ‘Life to the Full’ by TenTen. This programme has been written by Catholic scholars and has been developed to address the statutory requirements outlined by the government while being sensitive to the Catholic context.
