PSHE

PSHE Intent:

Personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE) and citizenship enables children to become healthy, independent and responsible members of society. We encourage our pupils to play a positive role in contributing to the life of the school and the wider community. In so doing we help develop their sense of self-worth. We teach them how society is organised and governed and British Values are promoted through the overarching aims and objectives of our curriculum. We ensure that they understand and experience the process of democracy in school through learning and other activities such as the election of pupil voice ambassadors.   We ensure that children are aware of safety issues and basic first aid.  We teach them about rights and responsibilities, and also link this to economic development. They learn to appreciate what it means to be a positive member of a diverse multicultural society. Our Relationships and Sex Education enables our children to learn how to be safe, and to understand and develop healthy relationships, both now and in their future lives. Our pupils are encouraged to develop their sense of self-worth by playing a positive role in contributing to school life and the wider community.
