RSHE School licence
The Parents’ Guide to RSHE is written for parents to help them understand the topics covered in RSHE and the reasons they’re included. We address parents’ concerns, provide explanations about course content, offer advice on ways parents can have conversations at home and include links to reliable organisations where they can get independent support if they need it.
If you’d like to share this guide with your parents at no cost to them, we offer a school licence. This enables you to share the guide in any way that suits you.
​
The Parents' Guide to Relationships, Sex, and Health Education is designed to support you in delivering effective RSHE.
Written specifically for parents, our interactive guide reinforces the importance of these topics in young people's personal development and facilitates meaningful conversations at home.
​
It provides parents with the tools and resources needed to continue discussions on key topics, including:
-
Online Safety
-
Drugs, Alcohol and Nicotine
-
Physical Health
-
Mental Health
-
Relationships and Sex
-

​
The guide also provides parents with useful advice and links to additional resources for further support.

The resources are fantastic - accessible and very much in the style students and parents are familiar with. The little touches, such as the glossary boxes and simple flow charts, make them very easy-to-navigate.

We've had so many positive responses from our parents this year - we thought you might like to know. Thank you for everything you're doing to help support parents.​​

Guides that deliver a great deal of information without being overwhelming, even for parents who know very little about the UK education system.​

What an amazing helpful resource for not only us as school workers, but also us as parents and carers. A big thank you for all your hard work and efforts in putting these wonderful resources together.​

RSHE and parents
Some parents feel uncomfortable about their teens taking part in RSHE lessons. This can be rooted in a misunderstanding that RSHE is all about sex and risky behaviours, when the truth is it covers a broad range of wellbeing topics designed to help students stay safe and healthy in today’s complex world.
​
The Parents’ Guide to RSHE helps communicate the right messages to parents. We focus on improving parents’ understanding of the overall objectives of RSHE and how it helps teens develop the skills they need to cope with the challenges of modern life. We don’t ignore parents’ rights to access course content and withdraw younger students from certain units, but we explain why we don’t recommend withdrawal in most cases.
​
Teens need factual knowledge to make informed choices. This influences how they act which, in turn, impacts their wellbeing.
