Free Relationships and Sex Education Support for Bradford Schools

Bradford schools offered fully funded RSE services

Schools across Bradford and Keighley are now able to access a range of free support services for Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) through a new partnership initiative. The Bradford RSE Partnership brings together local organisations to provide resources and assistance to primary, secondary, and alternative provision schools.

Partnership organisations

• Step 2
• Brathay Trust
• JAMES

These organisations are collaborating to deliver fully funded RSE support tailored to the needs of schools in the area. The partnership aims to help schools meet statutory requirements and improve the quality of RSE teaching.

Scope of support

The services offered cover a broad range of educational settings, including:

• Primary schools
• Secondary schools
• Alternative provision settings

While specific details of the support services have not been outlined, the partnership’s objective is to provide accessible and comprehensive RSE resources to schools that may require additional assistance.

Context

Relationships and Sex Education has been a statutory part of the school curriculum in England since September 2020. Schools are required to deliver age-appropriate education on relationships, health, and wellbeing. This partnership initiative is designed to support schools in Bradford and Keighley in fulfilling these obligations.

Schools interested in accessing the free RSE support can find further information through local education authority channels or by contacting the partnership organisations directly.
