RSHE audit

HCC commissioned an audit for all Hertfordshire state-funded schools. The survey had 3 important aims:

• to identify where schools are on their journey to fully embed the RSHE statutory requirements
• to identify any further signposting that could support RSHE delivery
• to gather some information on how confident schools feel about ensuring inclusion for all and the teaching of safeguarding within the RSHE curriculum and delivery

A short, recorded presentation has been made that highlights key information arising from the collective survey findings. We hope it will support subject leaders, RSHE teachers and governors/trustees to revisit their provision and practice and to plan their future areas for further development.

The feedback is divided into three separate sections with focuses on

Curriculum delivery

• 1 Timetabling
• 2 Who teaches RSHE
• 3 Use of visitors
• 4 Staff training
• 5 Topic coverage
• 6 Assessment

Inclusion and pupil withdrawal

• 1 Inclusion
• 2 Pupils excused from ‘sex education’

Curriculum development, resourcing, leadership and governance

• 1 Subject leadership & Governance
• 2 Subject Leadership
• 2 Resourcing RSHE
• 3 RSE/PSHE policy
• 4 Priorities 2022-23

We look forward to seeing you in your school or at our central courses.
