“We have worked with It Happens Education since the company started. They are incredibly professional, responding to pupil needs whilst also ensuring that content is checked and agreed by a member of staff prior to delivery to guarantee it is tailored specifically to our own RSE curriculum, and is in line with the schools’ ethos. Safeguarding is at the centre of all they do, with relevant topics taught sensitively; they are a team of experts, constantly updating content to be relevant and reflect the social influences and challenges teenagers face, whilst remaining factual and informative. They offer complete transparency in their work and have been very supportive when working with our parent community.”

Is your school looking for support with RSHE?

External organisations play a huge role in RSHE in schools.

We are currently supporting hundreds of schools: primary, prep, secondary, senior, single-sex, co-ed, faith-based, day and boarding schools across the UK.

We work with you to create a bespoke spiral programme to support your existing RSHE provision. We are here to enhance, not replace.

“Working with external organisations can enhance delivery of these subjects, bringing in specialist knowledge and different ways of engaging with young people.”
