RHSE in Year 5/6

13th November 2020

Relationship, Health & Sex Education (RHSE)

Dear Parent/Carer,

It really is lovely to have all your children back in school for term two and we hope you were able to enjoy the half term break. It certainly seems like everyone is growing taller and becoming more grown-up!

We are very aware that due to the national lockdown in term 6, we were unable to deliver the part of the PSHE curriculum containing information about relationships, changes and sex education. We do feel that children in Year 5 and Year 6 are becoming increasingly aware of their bodies and how they are beginning to change and develop.

Being keen to address this issue, we will aim to deliver the Year 5 sex and relationships curriculum sessions to all of the Year 5/6 classes during this term: the lessons use Powerpoint presentation and scripts to explain to children the changes they will be going through during the next few years of the life using scientific diagrams and terminology.

Please find below a link to our RHSE policy for you to refer to and if you have further questions or any concerns, please email the school office [email protected] or our year group; [email protected].

Year 5/6 team
