SPHE, RSE & Stay Safe Update
As part of our ongoing curriculum review, Powerstown ETNS has updated our SPHE calendar for this school year.
From now on, Relationships and Sexuality Education (RSE) and the Stay Safe programme will be taught on a biennial (every second year) basis. This approach ensures age-appropriate progression and aligns with national curriculum guidance.
