RSHE Ready: Planning & Teaching RSHE in SEND Settings

Featuring Rachael Baker from the Sex Education Forum (SEF) and Margaret Mulholland from the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL), this edition of RSHE Ready explores how the statutory RSHE requirements relate to SEND settings. Talking points include: how safe and healthy outcomes might differ in SEND settings compared to their mainstream equivalents; offering an age-appropriate curriculum to learners whose physical/chronological age outpaces their cognitive ability; making the RSHE curriculum accessible to ALL learners; and imparting the practical skills young people with SEND need to enjoy safe and healthy relationships.
