uin	2284
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/06/2015 answer text <p>Good quality sex and relationship education is a vital part of preparing young people for life in modern Britain. Our statutory guidance makes it clear that it must be taught in an age appropriate way. Sex and relationship education (SRE) is compulsory in maintained secondary schools and academies are expected to provide SRE as part of a broad and balanced curriculum. When teaching SRE, all schools must have regard to the Secretary of State’s statutory guidance. The guidance ensures young people develop positive values and a moral framework that will guide their decisions, judgments and behaviour, and makes clear that pupils should learn how the law applies to sexual relationships. The guidance also compels schools to give young people a clear understanding of the arguments for delaying sexual activity and resisting pressure.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The PSHE Association has developed non-statutory guidance for schools when teaching about the topic of consent, which was published in March 2015 and can be found at <a href="http://www.pshe-association.org.uk/" target="_blank">www.pshe-association.org.uk</a>. The department strongly welcomes this guidance.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The department believes that head teachers and their staff are best-placed to decide what resources and guidance to use to teach pupils about keeping safe and preparing for life in modern Britain.</p> answering member constituency Crewe and Nantwich answering member printed Edward Timpson question first answered 16/06/2015 15:27:54 answering member 1605 label Biography information for Edward Timpson
