PSHE - Personal, Social and Health Education

  • PSHE aims to support pupils’ spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development to prepare them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of life. There are 3 core themes for PSHE – Health and Wellbeing, Relationships, Living in the Wider World.

    Foundation Stage

    Most of the PSHE Curriculum is delivered through Personal, Social and Emotional Development and through Knowledge and Understanding of the World.

    This can be supplemented by circle time discussions Foundation / Key Stage 1 assemblies.

    Key Stage 1

    Most of the PSHE Curriculum is delivered through topic days (three full days throughout the school year) and R.E. However, specific opportunities to expand upon certain issues can be met through assemblies, circle time and the use of specific S.E.A.L. support material designed to support younger children.

    Key Stage 2

    To ensure complete coverage of the Framework in appropriate depth and in a non-judgmental way, it has been decided to adopt the programme of study set out in the S.E.A.L. curriculum. Aspects of the PSHE and Citizenship Framework are also addressed in our cross curricular topics each term.

"Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained."
