We see Sex Education as a responsibility shared by parents and school. Our approach seeks to provide the opportunity for personal growth, the development of values and attitudes, and an understanding of the skills required to build caring relationships. Responsible behaviour, decision making within a moral framework and the benefits of stable family life are features of the course. Sex Education is taught in different parts of our curriculum, but primarily in our Science and Citizenship courses. Parents can withdraw their children from all, or part, of our Sex Education programme except National Curriculum Science. Anyone wishing to do so should make a written request to Mr Saywell. We are pleased to say that nobody as yet has felt the need to do so.
