RELATIONSHIPS AND SEX EDUCATION 

During their time at school, children have the opportunity to follow a programme of Sex and Drugs Education. This programme supports policies that have been prepared by members of the teaching staff, parents, governors and health professionals. Much of the work is incorporated into a variety of cross-curricular topics. It is a planned and continuous programme, which is appropriate to children’s needs and stages of development. Sex and Drugs Education may also be learnt more informally through spontaneous discussion during which children are encouraged to be aware of moral considerations and the value of family relationships. Parents do have the right to withdraw their children from all or part of Sex Education other than that which is provided by the National Curriculum.
