At Eastern we want our pupils to excel in all aspects of life, so they grow into adults who are healthy, confident individuals. Our curriculum is designed to encourage and support young people to respect themselves and others, to value diversity, and give them the ability to build healthy, respectful relationships.

Young people should have the right to access information that keeps them safe from harm. This includes learning about healthy relationships, keeping safe, online and offline, and being confident to raise issues with responsible adults. Relationships and Sexuality Education (RSE) is designed to safeguard all our children and young people, supporting them to develop knowledge, skills and behaviours that will assist in protecting them throughout their lives. This is critical to building a society which treats others with understanding and empathy, whatever their ethnicity, social economic background, disability, sex, gender or sexuality.
