Minutes:
The Committee considered the petition and acknowledged
parents’ genuine concerns but noted the RSE curriculum has been extensively
consulted upon by Welsh Government and scrutinised in depth in the Senedd. In
light of this Members do not believe that it is appropriate to take any further
action on the petition and agreed to close it.
In addition to closing the petition Members suggested that parents liaise with their individual schools, Boards of Governors and local authorities regarding concerns about effective and informative communication about the delivery of the curriculum.
