RSE myth-buster and SEND RSE training

Tuesday 19th September 2023

RSE myth-buster resource

With the government review of the RSHE guidance underway and draft updated guidance expected to be published for public consultation in the next few weeks, it’s essential that educators feel supported to continue delivering high-quality RSHE. The statutory RSHE guidance (2019) remains in place and gives a solid foundation that schools are required to follow. The Sex Education Forum has published a new myth-buster resource available from their website to support schools and other stakeholders in communications about RSE/RSHE in the term ahead.

SEND specialist RSE training

The Sex Education Forum has launched Autumn 2023 dates for their SEND specialist RSE training, including their popular programme Developing RSE specialism in SEND schools. This is an exciting opportunity for teachers to join the next cohort, which starts in October.
