Governors

Governors and trustees have an important role to play in supporting schools to implement the statutory requirements for Relationships Education, RSE and Health Education (RSHE).

To fulfil this governance role and support senior leadership it's vital to be well informed about the current legislation, confident about the way that high quality RSE helps the school achieve their vision for children and young people and clear about the responsibilities of governors and trustees. 

Our 'twilight' training session for school governors and trustees provides the facts about the updated Government RSHE guidance 2025 (for implementation from 1 September 2026), clarity about roles and tools to work with senior leaders to develop high quality RSE in your setting. 

 The objectives of the training are to: 

  • Clarify the facts about statutory Relationships Education, RSE and Health Education and the updated (2025) statutory RSHE guidance
  • Identify the key outcomes of RSE for pupils and where these connect with the school values and ethos 
  • Recognise features of high quality, inclusive Relationships and Sex Education (RSE), underpinned by research evidence
  • Understand the requirements for parental involvement, the benefits of ongoing parental communication, and consider suitable methods   
  • Be confident about the responsibilities of Governors in relation to statutory RSHE
  • Know about some tools that can support school senior leaders to deliver high quality RSE 

How is this training delivered? 

  • Online delivery with interactive elements, giving delegates opportunity to ask questions from their school context.
  • Slide presentation and supporting 'aide memoire' with a handy set of questions for governors and trustees are provided to all delegates attending the training. 
  • Training runs for either 90 minutes or 2 hours.
