At St. Vincent de Paul RC Primary School, our vision for Relationship and Sex Education (RSE) is to provide a caring and respectful environment where children can grow in understanding and maturity, guided by the teachings of the Catholic faith. Using the Ten Ten RSE scheme, we aim to deliver a curriculum that not only educates our students about relationships, emotional well-being, and personal health, but also emphasizes the dignity of each person, the value of respect, and the beauty of love as God intended. We strive to equip our pupils with the knowledge, skills, and values they need to form healthy relationships, make informed choices, and grow into responsible and compassionate members of society. Through this approach, we encourage our students to reflect on the importance of respect, responsibility, and God’s love in all aspects of their lives.

Our RSE Subject Leader is Mrs T. McGrail.

From September 2026, revised statutory guidance for Relationships, Sex and Health Education (RSHE) came into effect nationally. Schools are required to have regard to this guidance and to ensure that parents and carers are informed about the RSHE curriculum and the materials used to teach it.

As a Catholic school, we teach RSHE and PSHE through Ten Ten Resources – Life to the Full, a Catholic programme developed specifically to support Catholic schools in delivering RSHE. It is rooted in the teaching and wisdom of the Catholic Church and places our Catholic faith at the heart of this important area of learning. The programme is founded on the belief that every person is created and loved by God and has a unique dignity and value.

We believe that parents and carers are the first and most important educators of their children, particularly in matters relating to relationships, growing up and family life. We therefore want to work closely with you and ensure that you know what your child will be learning in school.

Ten Ten provides a secure Parent Portal, which enables you to explore the programme and see the themes and resources your child will encounter.

The website address for our Ten Ten Scheme ‘Life to the Full Plus’ is:

Online Parent Portal


Login Details for Parents were shared in the newsletter dated 25th September.

We warmly encourage you to spend some time looking through the resources. We hope that access to the Parent Portal will not only help you understand what is being taught in school, but will also give you useful information and tools to support conversations with your child at home.

By working together, we can help our children develop the knowledge, confidence and understanding they need as they grow, while ensuring that their learning is grounded in our shared Catholic values of love, dignity, respect and care for one another.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support and partnership.
