Dear parents/carers,
We’ve been consulting with parents, pupils and staff to make sure our new relationships and sex education (RSE) curriculum meets the government’s requirements, as well as the needs of our pupils.
We’ve worked hard to make sure that our new curriculum reflects:
We’ve now updated our RSE policy to include our proposed new curriculum.
You’ll find a copy of our new draft policy attached to this letter. We’ve also made it available on our website at www.nettlesworth.durham.sch.uk

Yours sincerely,
