Practical advice for engaging with parents and governors on PSHE, including statutory requirements.
PSHE education should be a partnership between parents and schools.
It’s also key to have governors on board with what you’re doing. Our handy guides will help you to communicate with parents and governors about the subject’s content, and value.
Engage with parents about Relationships Education/RSE
Use our guides to communicate with parents about statutory Relationships Education (KS1-2) and Relationships and Sex Education (KS3-4). We include practical advice — including a template letter and parent workshop plan — on how to explain the statutory requirements and right of withdrawal from sex education.
