Event Summary

In December 2023, the Department for Education published draft guidance to support pupils who are questioning their gender, and in early 2024, will publish new statutory guidance for schools. Join Westminster Insight’s timely Relationships, Sex and Health Education in Schools conference in March 2024 to hear practical guidance for developing a high-quality, age-appropriate RSHE curriculum.

Hear from Dame Lesley Regan who chaired the RSHE review independent expert panel on next steps for the guidance including the consultation period with parents, teachers, and education experts. We will provide clarity on a range of issues including safeguardinggender identity and the future of sex education for schools preparing to implement the guidance.

You will hear from key stakeholders on how the new guidance can be implemented effectively, moving towards a focus on wellbeing and adopting a student and parent first approach.

Looking beyond the new guidance, we will explore how to deliver high-quality RSHE in an increasingly complex world, discussing how to incorporate young people’s views into the curriculum and engage positively with parents and families.

Designed for both primary and secondary schools, you will learn strategies to teach sensitive topics, embedding curriculum development and inclusive initiatives to meet the needs of students.

What does effective RSHE look like? Learn from primary and secondary schools who have taken proactive steps to develop age-appropriate content, provide training for staff and embed collaboration between external agencies to improve learning opportunities.

Network with colleagues from across primary and secondary schools to help you develop a high-quality RSHE curriculum that is inclusive of all
