Curriculum and Assessment (Wales) Bill

Relationships and Sexuality Education

Kirsty Williams’s Bill abolishes all existing safeguards. It contains nothing to replace them. She has said an ‘RSE Code’ will be written, but it hasn’t been published and any such Code can be updated by future ministers.

Safeguards must be on the face of the Bill. Your MSs are being asked to vote blind.

There are good laws covering Religious Education in Wales. This framework is to be scrapped and replaced by arrangements which can be controlled by atheists and those personally opposed to religious faith.

The Minister for Education, Kirsty Williams, is pushing an education Bill which requires all pupils to study atheism or “non-religious” views such as Humanism. The subject of Religious Education (RE) is to be absorbed into Religion, Values and Ethics (RVE).
