# Will Life to the Full Plus be required to meet the new statutory RSHE guidance?
### **Overview**
No—*Life to the Full Plus* will **not be required** to meet the new statutory RSHE guidance.
All statutory RSHE content will be included within the **core Life to the Full programme**.
---
### **What has changed?**
Previously, some elements of statutory content (such as aspects of personal safety) were expected to sit within *Life to the Full Plus*.
This approach has now changed.
**Updated position:**
- **All statutory RSHE content will be delivered through the core Life to the Full programme**
- Schools will **not need Life to the Full Plus** to be compliant
---
### **What does this mean for schools?**
Schools can be confident that:
- Subscribing to **Life to the Full (core)** alone will ensure **full statutory compliance**
- There is no requirement to purchase additional programmes to meet RSHE expectations
This provides clarity and reassurance when planning for the updated guidance.
---
### **What is the role of Life to the Full Plus now?**
Life to the Full Plus continues as a **dedicated PSHE programme**, designed to complement the core curriculum.
It focuses on:
- Wider personal development
- Social understanding
- Life skills beyond statutory RSHE
For example:
- Rights and responsibilities
- Money and careers
- Broader wellbeing and citizenship themes
---
### **How do the two programmes work together?**
While only the core programme is needed for compliance:
- **Life to the Full** = statutory RSHE curriculum
- **Life to the Full Plus** = extended PSHE provision
Together, they offer:
- A fully integrated curriculum
- A clear and coherent approach
- Teaching rooted in Catholic values and understanding
---
### **Where can I find more information?**
Further details about these updates can be found in the relevant article on the Ten Ten Hub.
---
### **Summary**
- Life to the Full Plus is **not required** for statutory compliance
- All RSHE statutory content is included in **Life to the Full (core)**
- Life to the Full Plus remains an **optional PSHE extension**
- Both programmes work together to provide a complete curriculum
