    • Relationships Education

    Statutory PSHE and Relationships Education Curriculum (including Parent Consultation)

    From September 2020, primary schools have been required to teach Relationships Education as part of our PSHE curriculum. These documents published by the DfE (Department of Education) can be viewed below. High quality Relationships Education in primary schools will be focused on the fundamental building blocks and characteristics of positive relationships with particular reference to friendships, family relationships, and relationships with other children and adults.

    The Relationships Education curriculum will be based around these topics:

    • Families and people who care for me
    • Caring friendships
    • Respectful relationships
    • Online relationships
    • Being safe

    If you’d like more information on what Relationships Education will include, please see pages 19 - 22 of the DfE document ‘Relationships Education, Relationships and Sex Education and Health Guidance’ (please note that Relationships and Sex Education is mandatory at secondary level only).
