This document aims to guide Governing Bodies in the production of a policy to support their schools as they, in turn, support the formation of the children and young adults they serve. The document is intended to underpin the process of policy formation and should be read in conjunction with the Diocese’s guidance on teaching and learning about human relationships and sex education. It outlines: • The Legal Context • Roles and responsibilities • A policy framework It is recognised that this is a challenging area for schools as they are at the meeting point of Church and the wider world where the values of the Catholic faith may appear distant from lived experience. Human relationships and sex education offers more scope for deepening understanding about the nature of human love, than sex and relationships education. This is because in the Christ centred vision of life, human dignity informs all our actions and interactions with others.

There were few villages and towns in Lancashire that were left untouched by the ‘iniury of the tymes’ when Catholicism was driven underground and her adherents were persecuted mercilessly, some condemned to death. At that time Lancaster was the seat of the assizes in North West England and in recent years the Church has recognised the heroic virtue of 14 priests and laymen from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered on account of their faith on the outskirts of the city. The prayers within this book have been collected from devotional tracts and books of that time, all of which would have been considered contraband.
