PSHE Learning (including Relationships Education)

Intent

We aim to promote and develop healthy, respectful and independent members of our school and the wider community. PSHE is taught across the school from Reception - Year 6. Our PSHE curriculum equips children with relevant and meaningful content, which is supported through a strong emphasis on emotional literacy, building resilience and nurturing mental and physical health. With an ever changing society, we are able to provide our children with a strong understanding of the diverse world around them and support them in playing a positive role in contributing to the school and the wider community.

Implementation

Using the resources provided by the Jigsaw scheme of work, we have developed a curriculum that meets the needs of our school community with Relationships Education being an integral part of our PSHE teaching.

“Today’s children and young people are growing up in an increasingly complex world and living their lives seamlessly on and offline. This presents many positive and exciting opportunities, but also challenges and risks. In this environment, children and young people need to know how to be safe and healthy, and how to manage their academic, personal and social lives in a positive way.”

PSHE is taught in explicit lessons and these are then reinforced and enhanced in:

assemblies and collective worship, praise and reward system, through relationships child to child, adult to child and adult to adult across the school and in other subject areas such as Physical Education, Religious Education, SMSC, Science and Computer Education.
