Proposed Guidance on Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood

The Scottish Government is proposing to drop all reference to denominational schools in their new guidance on Relationships, Sexual Health, and Parenting.

The Bishops of Scotland have issued this statement:


“The Bishops’ Conference of Scotland is both disappointed and confused at the decision by the Scottish Government to delete all reference to Catholic schools in its :Guidance on the Delivery of Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood (RSHP) Education in Scottish Schools” document. We strongly request the re-insertion of the paragraphs relating to Denominational Education from the previous iteration of the guidance, which would reflect both the legal protection for schools with a Religious Character, and the previously supportive position of Scottish Government for Catholic schools.”
