At the request of the Minister of Education, the NCCA undertook a major review of RSE in primary and post-primary schools. The review began in June 2018 and the NCCA published the final report in December 2019. The review gathered perspectives on the current RSE curriculum, the adopted approaches to the teaching and learning of RSE and RSE supports available. Participation in the review was considerable and captured the voices of students, parents, teachers, school leaders, researchers and organisations. For further information including research, written submissions and an FAQ please visit https://ncca.ie/en/primary/primary-developments/social-personal-and-health-education-sphe-relationships-and-sexuality-education-rse |
