    RSHE at the Mount 

    At the Mount we use 'Talking Points' to support delivery of the RSHE (relationships and health education) curriculum. 'Talking Points' is a Physical Health, Mental Wellbeing and Relationships Curriculum for Primary Schools, taking full account of the DfE Guidance for the new RSHE curriculum.

    Our curriculum has been set out in such a way that promotes pupil talk. Each unit in each year group is linked to a quality text and uses children's picture books to start age appropriate discussions about topics covered. Children are encouraged to take part in discussions and activities. We also aim to encourage a love of reading and to increase vocabulary understanding.

    Parental rights to withdraw

    We are committed to ensuring that the education provided to pupils in relationships education / RSE is appropriate to the age of pupils and compliant with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010. We recognise, in accordance with statutory guidance, that parents have the right to request for their child to be withdrawn from some or all of the sex education delivered as part of the statutory RSE (other than sex education in the National Curriculum as part of Science), but not from relationships education.

    Parents wishing to exercise this right must do so in writing to the Head Teacher, Christine Turner, we will make reasonable adjustments and provide suitable work for their child(ren) at this time.
