The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what role Ofsted plays, if any, in assessing schools' compliance with statutory guidance on relationships, sex and health education (RSHE).

This is a matter for His Majesty’s Chief Inspector, Sir Martyn Oliver. I have asked him to write to the hon. Member for Great Yarmouth directly and a copy of his reply will be placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
