Sexuality - what it is and what words describe it. Body changes in me and others - why they are happening. Things that go into my body that help and things that harm. Messages about health and sexuality from television, films, books and newspapers. Someone new - the development of the womb and the birth of a baby.
Life begins - the meeting of the sperm and the egg.
Boys and girls will watch the programmes together but can be split up afterwards for separate follow-up discussion with the class teacher and School Nurse. We shall attempt to deal with questions in a sensitive, open, frank and matter of fact way. Questions concerning homosexuality, sexually transmitted diseases and contraception will be answered if raised. Before the programmes are seen by the children parents will have the opportunity to view the programmes and comment on the content.
