As a part of your child’s educational experience at Langtoft Primary School, we aim to promote personal wellbeing and development through a comprehensive taught programme of Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education that gives children and young people the knowledge, under-standing, attitudes and practical skills to live healthy, safe, productive and fulfilled lives, both now and in the future.
The Department for Education has made changes to relationships education following nationwide consultation which came into effect from September 2020 and all schools are required to comply with the updated requirements. Updated statutory guidance was published in December 2025.
The guidance focuses on healthy relationships and keeping children safe in the modern world. It also covers a wide range of topics relating to physical and mental health, wellbeing, safeguarding and healthy relationships.
Learning about the emotional, social and physical aspects of growing up will give children and young people the information, skills and positive values to have safe, fulfilling relationships and help them take responsibility for their own well-being.
Consequently, from September 2020, Relationships and Sex Education (RSE), along with Health Education, will be statutory, and form part of the National Curriculum.
We have reviewed our PSHE curriculum and policy so we can be sure our RSE provision is appropriate for our pupils based on their:
· Age
· Physical and emotional maturity
· Religious and cultural backgrounds
· Special educational needs and disabilities
As part of this process, in December 2021, the school consulted with parents, staff and governors to help us inform our schools’ decisions on when and how certain content is covered.
To help you understand the curriculum requirements in addition resources for parents/carers, please look at the information below which provides more detail.
