IT Support

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our IT Support team at itsupport@queensgate.org.uk and relationships, child abuse, and bereavement. The teaching offered by the

School is designed to be supportive of the role of parents. • Sex Education is delivered through Biology lessons in Remove and revisited on the

GCSE Biology course. Relationships and

Sex Education (RSE) has now become a legal obligation for schools, for all pupils receiving secondary education, subject to a limited parental right to withdraw pupils from the Sex Education components up to three terms before the child turns 16. These lessons provide an understanding that a supportive, caring environment is essential for the development of stable, healthy relationships and that individuals are in charge of and responsible for their own bodies. Parents have the right to withdraw their children from any, or all parts, of the school’s programme of Sex Education. In this case, parents should write to the

Principal, stating their objections. Parents will not, however, be able to withdraw their child from any aspect of Relationships

Education or Health Education.

• Our PSCHE programme encourages the acquisition of skills and attitudes which allow girls to develop in a responsible and healthy manner. • Pastoral Days: There are two Pastoral Days each year in the Autumn and Spring terms.

Girls have individual interviews with their

Form Tutors and attend sessions exploring topics within the PSCHE curriculum, as well as extra-curricular and enrichment activities.

Parent Workshop - In the Spring Term all Remove parents are invited to a Parent Workshop on the topic of ‘Managing the Teenage Years’, run by Julie Johnson.
