Why SPHE matters

SPHE is now a mandatory subject in Senior Cycle from September 2027. Research from the ESRI and NCCA highlights the importance of wellbeing, relationships, identity and digital literacy in supporting young people’s development.

Curriculum reform

The redeveloped SPHE curriculum emphasises 60 hours of structured learning in Senior Cycle and one hour per week in Transition Year. Let’s Talk SPHE provides the resources and structure schools need to meet these requirements.

Student needs

Studies show that students with strong socio-emotional skills are better equipped to navigate school and post-school life. SPHE plays a critical role in supporting mental health, resilience and engagement.

Teacher support

Let’s Talk SPHE provides comprehensive resources to support teachers in delivering a programme that meets both student needs and inspection standards, while encouraging open and honest classroom discussion.

Parental reassurance

Parents want reassurance that their teenagers are receiving age-appropriate, relevant education around consent, relationships, identity, online safety and wellbeing. Let’s Talk SPHE provides a structured, safe space for these conversations.

How it works

As a subscribing school, nominated staff receive unique login details and full access to the platform. Teachers can review content, organise lesson plans and select resources to prioritise the needs of their students.
