Dear parents/carers,
We’ve been consulting with parents, pupils and staff to make sure our new relationships and sex education (RSE) curriculum meets the government’s requirements, as well as the needs of our pupils.
We’ve worked hard to make sure that our new curriculum reflects:
We’ve now updated our RSE policy to include our proposed new curriculum.
You’ll find a copy of our new draft policy attached to this letter. We’ve also made it available on our website at www.nettlesworth.durham.sch.uk
If you have any feedback on the proposed curriculum, and the wider policy, please contact Mrs D Lee on d.lee103@nettlesworth.durham.sch.uk
The deadline for responding to the consultation is Friday 24th September 2021.
Yours sincerely,

Huge well done to Sam for being our school artist of the month!
Our famous artist we are celebrating, is the wonderful Liz Million who is an illustrator from Darlington.
Well done to our children who have shown a potential future career in Boxing. They all attend clubs outside of school and are delighted with their recent achievements. We are all very proud of you.
Well done to all our children who have worked very hard on their TT Rockstars all week. Our certificates are for the most correct answers over the past week.
Well done to all our children who have worked incredibly hard all week and achieved the Head Teacher’s Award. We were blown away with the quality of their work and the leadership skills they showed in lessons and playtimes. Well done to all.
Today Darren from the SSP came into school to carry out our first Inter-house Competition of the year. Our brand new Sports Leaders worked with him to set up 5 throwing events for classes 1, 2 and 3. All of our children amazed us and tried so hard to win points for their teams. We cant wait to see the overall scores on the doors!
UNCRC 29 – education must develop talents.
We had such a fantastic day, celebrating all things Roald Dahl today.
The children all looked amazing in their costumes and wearing yummy yellow – his favourite colour! There were some outstanding homemade costumes that must have taken so long to make.
The children all came together in assembly to celebrate Roald Dahl and the children then took part in various Roald Dahl activities in their classrooms throughout the day.
We are so proud of our little runners Jasleen, Praim and Sophie. They have completed the mini GNR this weekend. Well done guys, you are amazing! And well done to any adults that also ran on Sunday too.
Our first Headteachers Award since coming back to school after Summer.
We are all so proud of the children who have caught the eye of their teachers and Mrs Lee this week.
