Intent for RSHE

At Grange View First School, the RHSE curriculum covers subject knowledge, skills and understanding in Relationships, sex and Health education which will prepare children to become healthy and responsible members of society currently and in their future lives. 

It will support them with the development of their social and personal skills and tackle many of the moral, social and cultural issues that are part of growing up.  We provide children with opportunities to learn about their rights and responsibilities and appreciate being a member of a diverse society.  We encourage our children to be open and honest about their feelings and emotions, to create a secure environment within which mental health can be supported and discussed. Effective communication will be encouraged for all the children by ensuring all views are listened to and respected. 

All of the children at Grange View First School will be supported in developing their self-worth by playing a role in contributing to school and the wider community.  We strive for all our children to leave Grange View having a secure sense of self, how to be safe and how to care for others.

Sex and Relationship Education

Sex education is taught in the context of healthy growing bodies, relationships, RE and the statutory requirements of the science national curriculum.  Parents have the right to withdraw their child from any part of sex education that is outside the compulsory requirements of the curriculum.   We invite you to discuss this with the headteacher.
