PSHE

PSHE (Personal, social, health education) and SRE (sex and relationships education)

INTENT

Content 

Through our PSHE programme of study, children build on these themes: rights & responsibilities; managing feelings & emotions; healthy relationships; growing & changing; diversity and keeping safe.

SRE enables children to develop positive and safe relationships with family and friends (including online), both now and in the future, It also teaches children to recognise ways to stay safe both on and offline.

Cohesion

The themes of PSHE are revisited each year to embed knowledge and deepen thinking, including the British values. Content is linked. where possible, to themed days and assemblies such as anti-bullying week. Our content is also adapted to suit current needs of our demographic when needed.

Creativity

Children have open-ended challenges and discussions, and share their knowledge in a variety of ways. 

Compassion

Through our teaching of British values, we promote respect and tolerance for those who choose to live their lives differently to others. Through gaining accurate information and forming positive beliefs, values and attitudes, we will encourage our children to challenge discrimination and nurture respect for different viewpoints – not just in PSHE lessons but in everyday life. 

Community

One of the core themes is how children belong to different communities and how to be a good citizen, including having respectful and supportive relationships. Local ambassadors from the community (such as the police and the Imam) enrich our PSHE curriculum and widen our children’s opportunities to explore the world we live in.
