Learning for Life: RSHE at KEVIGS

At KEVIGS, Relationships, Sex Education, and Health Education (RSHE) plays a vital role in students’ development across their seven years with us. Our aim is to help students gain a broad understanding of topics such as careers, mental health, protected characteristics, goal setting, and social media. RSHE also equips students with essential life skills to navigate situations affecting themselves or others.
