We ensure that our teaching of sex education is age appropriate. Respect & Diversity We support children to understand diversity recognising different religions, races, sexes, ideas, and lifestyles; to respect other people's boundaries and beliefs and accept responsibility for their own behaviour and actions. Moral Values Positive behaviour is consistently modelled and applauded to reinforce good choices and teach our children to be accountable for their mistakes, supporting them to become good citizens able to protect themselves from potentially negative influences.
