Relationships and sex education must be “grounded in facts” to prevent controversy, Ofsted’s chief inspector has said.
Amanda Spielman, chief inspector of Ofsted, told school and college leaders that “clearer and more specific guidelines” on relationships and sex education (RSE) could “help everybody get it right”.
Her comments come after Rishi Sunak said the Government would accelerate a review of how relationships and sex education is being taught in schools.
The pledge came after Conservative MP Miriam Cates said pupils were being subjected to relationships and sex education lessons that are “age inappropriate, extreme, sexualising and inaccurate.”
