PSHE Curriculum Intent

Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) Education helps children develop the knowledge, skills, and values they need to stay healthy, safe, and happy, build positive relationships, and become confident, responsible members of society.

We believe that our vision, Learning for life, building a firm foundation, is really important and as a school our pupils’ wellbeing, happiness and safety are our first priority. We regard PSHE as an important integral component of the whole curriculum; it is central to our approach and at the heart of what we do and we believe that children need firm foundations on which to build in all aspects of their lives.

Our PSHE curriculum aims to help children:

• Develop confidence, resilience, and independence.

• Build positive, respectful relationships.

• Understand how to stay healthy, safe, and happy.

• Recognise and manage their emotions.

• Make informed and responsible choices.

• Respect and celebrate differences within our diverse community.

• Know how to stay safe both online and offline.

• Understand their rights, responsibilities, and role as active citizens.

• Prepare for the opportunities, responsibilities, and experiences of later life.

• Develop the knowledge and skills to achieve their full potential.
