  • That all bodies are different and we celebrate our uniqueness.

Names for the body parts that make boys and girls different.

These are your PRIVATE parts - not your shameful parts.

Why do we teach body parts in KS1

  • To develop confidence when talking and learning about the human body
  • To teach children to respect their bodies
  • To make sure that children can accurately and confidently name all body parts, including their genitals/private parts

Parent Role

Children learn at home and at school.

Our aim is to work in partnership with families so that they hear the same key messages.

  • We all want children to feel safe and to be happy and healthy
  • Regularly talking about human reproduction as opportunities occur will help prepare students for the next stage of their learning (RSE)
  • We might need to change our own thinking

Possible questions at school or at home...

Where does the baby grow?

  • A baby grows inside the woman (uterus)

How do you make a baby?

  • You need a part from a man (cell/sperm/seed) and a part from a woman (cell/egg) to make a baby.
  • Emphasise that ‘making babies’ is for grown-ups when talking with your child.

How does the baby come out?

  • A baby can come out of the woman’s stomach or through her vagina (between her legs)
