Exam Board: Not applicable as non-examined
Outline of Subject
Topics are introduced in an unbiased way and delivered so that it encourages a responsible informed attitude towards sexual activity, health and citizenship. The ideal outcome is for students to make their own decisions and the correct life choices without pressure or influence. Specialist staff and qualified outside speakers deliver these lessons to all students on a rotation basis. In addition, we work closely with National Citizen Service (NCS) who deliver a session to our Year 11 students.
