Relationships Education and Health Education

Vision

'Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart' Eleanor Roosevelt

At Throston Primary School, we understand that pupils must be provided with an education that prepares them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of adult life. A key part of this relates to relationships and health education, which must be delivered to every primary-aged pupil. Relationships education focusses on giving pupils the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their wellbeing, health and relationships, and to build their self-efficacy. Health education focusses on equipping pupils with the knowledge they need to make good decisions about their own health and wellbeing. We understand our responsibility to deliver a high-quality, age-appropriate and evidence-based relationships, sex and health curriculum for all our pupils.

Rights Respecting

As a school we are on a journey to become a ‘Rights Respecting School’. It is not about achieving an award rather a way of ensuring that we have put the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child into practice within Throston Primary School and beyond.
