Year 6 - Sex Education Starting a Family - How Do Loving Families Have Children? In this lesson, we will revisit what we learned earlier in the year about human reproduction, as we look at this topic again, but this time in the context of loving and intimate relationships. We will discuss the concept of family, what it means to start one, and some of the different ways loving couples can show commitment to one another. This discussion will lead to the different ways loving couples (including same-sex couples) may decide to have children if they wish to start a family together. We will touch on topics such as adoption, IVF, and surrogacy, and explain that, for most couples, babies are conceived naturally when a man and a woman consent to having sexual intercourse. The process of natural conception (including sexual intercourse) will be explained to the students in an age-appropriate and scientific manner. We will also briefly mention that, for many grown-up couples, sexual intercourse is a way to express their love for each other. As always, this lesson is fully editable, allowing you to make any adjustments that you feel would better suit the needs of your students, in accordance with your parent consultation.

Conception and making babies: what happens when egg and sperm meet? This is the fourth lesson in our Year 6 unit on puberty, genes, and the human lifecycle. In this lesson, we will recap our Year 5 science lessons, where we learned about reproduction in mammals, before delving deeper as we apply this knowledge to humans and how reproduction plays a key role in the human life cycle. We will look at the role of the male and female sex cells (gametes) and how their union leads to a genetically unique offspring that inherits traits from each parent. Please note that this lesson predominantly focuses on the scientific aspects of reproduction, with a particular focus on fertilisation and conception. While sexual intercourse is briefly mentioned, it is not taught in detail. This topic will, however, be revisited when we learn about loving and intimate relationships later on in the school year.
