Laying the Foundations, Second Edition

A practical guide to sex and relationships education in primary schools
Laying the Foundations enables primary school staff to develop and review their sex and relationships education (SRE) policy and prepare teachers to plan and deliver lessons.

Laying the Foundations is the one-stop resource for running sex and relationships education (SRE) in primary schools.

Providing step-by-step guidance on implementing SRE using a whole-school approach, it outlines good practice in developing an SRE policy, as well as effective planning, delivery and assessment of SRE education, including guidance and ready-to-use lesson plans.

Laying the Foundations adopts an approach to SRE which brings together the biological and social aspects. It focuses on learning about bodies, reproduction and puberty within the context of emotions, relationships, healthy choices and equality. It also provides the background to future work on sexual and reproductive health and so helps to prepare children for adulthood.

Key features include:

clear advice on SRE policy and delivery
case study examples of practice
activities to assess knowledge and evaluate teaching approaches
tried and tested lesson plans, for KS1 and 2
a range of Key Questions for each year
