Relationships and Sexuality Education programmes
The Ministry of Education is in the process of updating the New Zealand Curriculum. Navigating the Journey aligns with the current 2007 Health and Physical Education curriculum. The 2007 curriculum remains in effect for Years 0-8 – but will be replaced for Years 9-10 from 2027.
However, as a comprehensive programme for educators delivering relationships and sexuality education in school-based settings, Navigating the Journey continues to offer real value.
Visit the Ministry of Education website for more information on the curriculum update and implementation timing.
