Year 6 Unit 5 - Conception and Puberty (FREE SOW)

Our progressive curriculum builds sequentially year-on-year, culminating in this Year 6 unit that builds on students’ prior learning to deepen their understanding of puberty, conception, and reproduction within the context of the human life cycle. Please note that this lesson bundle does not include teaching about sexual intercourse. This lesson is part of our relationships unit, which is taught at the end of the year.

This free planning bundle includes a detailed scheme of work, a long-term plan showing our entire curriculum at a glance, a Year 6 roadmap clearly illustrating the progressive design across the year, and a comprehensive knowledge organiser highlighting key vocabulary and summarising the progression of skills and knowledge. It also includes British Values mapping and optional pre- and post-assessments.
