A complete, six-lesson Catholic Secondary RSHE unit — statutory-compliant and faithful to Catholic teaching. This is the foundation unit of the Verity scheme: it establishes that every person is made in God’s image (imago Dei) with an inalienable dignity, and builds from there to healthy self-worth, managing feelings, resilience and hope, respect for self and others, and knowing where to seek help.

Dual compliance, evidenced. Every lesson names the DfE statutory strand it covers (Health — Mental wellbeing; RSE — Respectful relationships) and the Catholic teaching and source it draws on — so you can show both Ofsted/DfE and your diocese the same materials.
What’s included:

Six ready-to-teach lesson decks (Do Now → learning → activity → plenary) — text-only, fully editable, with model answers in the speaker notes
Medium-Term Plan with the statutory ↔ Catholic mapping
Knowledge Organiser (key vocabulary, core knowledge, sources)
Detailed, near-standalone lesson plans for all 6 lessons — teacher subject knowledge, model answers, misconceptions, SEND & challenge, and sensitivity notes
A Parent / Carer Information Sheet (supports the RSHE transparency duty)
Reflection tasks (RSHE is formative, not graded)

The six lessons: (1) Who am I? Made in God’s image · (2) More than a mirror: self-worth & self-image · (3) Feelings and how to handle them · (4) Resilience and hope · (5) Respecting myself and others · (6) Where to turn: help, support and prayer.

This unit covers Health and relationships — it is not sex education, so no diocesan sign-off or right-to-withdraw process is needed; it is safe to teach across any Catholic secondary. A teaching resource, not an official CES/diocesan publication; review against your school’s RSHE policy.

Catholic Secondary RSHE | WHOLE SCHOOL KS3–KS4 | 15 Units, Dual-Compliant

The complete Catholic secondary RSHE programme — all of Key Stages 3 AND 4 (Years 7–11), 15 units, in one download. Statutory-compliant AND faithful to Catholic teaching: the "dual compliance" your school actually needs. Most RSHE resources force a choice: DfE-compliant OR authentically Catholic. This scheme does both. Every unit meets the DfE statutory RSHE requirements (including the 2025 additions — online harms, misogyny/VAWG, mental health, sexual health, biological sex and gender) while grounding it all in a coherent Catholic vision of the human person: imago Dei, the body as gift, love as self-gift, virtue, and conscience. WHAT'S INCLUDED — for every one of the 15 units: - Cover & licence - Medium-Term Plan with a statutory ↔ Catholic mapping table - Knowledge Organiser - Parent & Carer Information Sheet - A detailed, near-standalone lesson-plan booklet (6 lessons) - 6 ready-to-teach, editable lesson decks That's 90 lessons and 90 decks across the whole of secondary — plus two Dual-Compliance Coverage Maps (KS3 and KS4) that show, at a glance, exactly where each statutory requirement is met. THE 15 UNITS KS3 — Y7: Made in God's Image · Stewards of the Body · Real Friendship & Family. Y8: Living in a Digital World · Respect, Courage & Standing Up · Mind & Heart (mental health). Y9: Made for Love · Body, Sexual Health & the Truth of the Person · Choices & Life. KS4 — Y10: Made for Love, Made for Life · The Gift of Sexuality · Healthy Minds. Y11: The Dignity of Life · Risk, Freedom & Responsibility · Ready for Adult Life. GOVERNANCE, HANDLED PROPERLY The sensitive units (sex education, mental health, and life issues) come with clear governance notes: recommended diocesan approval, parental right-to-withdraw guidance, safe-messaging on mental health, and evenhanded, factual, non-explicit teaching. Everything is designed to be taught with sensitivity and to satisfy inspectors, governors and parents alike. Aligned to the DfE statutory RSHE guidance and written to sit within a Catholic school's mission. A teaching resource; not an official publication of the CES or any diocese. 167 files: 77 documents + 90 editable slide decks. Single-school licence. IMPORTANT — SCHOOL REVIEW REQUIRED BEFORE TEACHING. This scheme is a teaching resource, not an approval. The units covering sex education and life issues should be reviewed and approved through your school's own governance process and, where your school requires it, by your diocese, before delivery. The unit addressing mental health requires safeguarding sign-off from your designated safeguarding lead. Schools remain responsible for their own compliance, policy and safeguarding decisions. Where a lesson signposts support, your school should source and verify its own current contact details — national services and helpline numbers change, and your school is best placed to confirm them and to add local services and named staff. Support organisations are indicated by name only; the resource deliberately does not supply telephone numbers. Aligned to the statutory Relationships Education, Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) and Health Education guidance for England (Department for Education, 2019; © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0; source: gov.uk), and written within the Catholic understanding of the human person.

Catholic RSHE KS3 COMPLETE | Years 7–9, 9 Units, 54 Lessons + 54 Decks

The complete Key Stage 3 Catholic Secondary RSHE scheme — nine units, 54 lessons, 54 ready-to-teach decks — statutory-compliant (including all the 2025 additions) and faithful to Catholic teaching, with the dual-compliance coverage map included. A whole spiralling programme across Years 7–9: dignity, the body, friendship and family (Y7); digital life, respect/VAWG, mental health (Y8); love/marriage/vocation, sexual health and the truth of the person, and choices/substances/first aid (Y9). Every lesson names its DfE statutory strand and its Catholic source, so a department can evidence both DfE/Ofsted compliance and diocesan fidelity from one scheme. Includes covers, medium-term plans, knowledge organisers, detailed lesson plans, decks and parent information sheets for every unit. Note: the Year 8 mental-health unit and Year 9 sexual-health unit are sensitive; the latter contains sex education and requires diocesan approval — full governance and withdrawal guidance is included. Ideal as a departmental, MAT or diocesan licence. IMPORTANT — SCHOOL REVIEW REQUIRED BEFORE TEACHING. This scheme is a teaching resource, not an approval.
