All primary schools, including Church of England schools, are required to teach statutory Relationships and Health Education. When selecting and delivering a scheme, Church schools should also take into account local church, diocesan or trust guidance alongside their own policies.
The Church of England’s RSHE Principles and Charter provide guidance on inclusive, faith-sensitive provision. Kapow Primary aligns with these through a carefully planned, progressive RSE and PSHE curriculum.
Delivering RSHE professionally
The Church of England Charter states that RSHE should be delivered as a planned, sequenced part of PSHE. Kapow Primary reflects this through a carefully structured, spiral curriculum that ensures clear progression and revisits key learning as pupils mature.
Supporting curriculum information clearly identifies where statutory Relationships and Health Education content is covered.
Working in partnership with parents and carers
Kapow Primary supports schools to work in partnership with parents and carers through a dedicated Parent zone, featuring videos and curriculum information. This promotes transparency and what pupils will be learning and reflects the Church of England Charter’s emphasis on dialogue, while recognising that schools retain responsibility for curriculum decisions.
Respecting diverse communities
Kapow Primary’s curriculum reflects the diversity of modern Britain, ensuring pupils see themselves and others represented. Pupils encounter a wide range of characters, experiences and family structures, promoting inclusion, respect and belonging, supported by guidance for sensitive delivery.
Non-statutory citizenship content further emphasises diversity within communities and respectful relationships, aligning with the Church of England Charter’s focus on dignity, respect and sensitivity to different beliefs.
