RSHE – Right to withdraw
Parents/carers are consulted and informed about the academy’s sex education policy and practice and are invited in to the academy to review content taught, discuss any issues of concern or ask questions. There is a requirement to teach the elements of sex education contained in the Science curriculum and therefore there is no right to withdraw from these lessons. However, parents have the right to withdraw their children from some or all of the sex education lessons. Requests for withdrawal should be put in writing and addressed to the Principal. The Principal will automatically grant the request to withdraw a pupil from sex education and alternative work will be given to these pupils.
RE – Right to withdraw
RE is provided for all pupils, and is inclusive and broad minded. Parents do have the right to withdraw pupils from RE: if you wish to do this, please make your request in writing and addressed to the Principal. The school does not support selective withdrawal from RE.
