PSHE

As a school we follow the My Life PSHE curriculum. We have chosen the following scheme because: 

The topics have been carefully arranged in order to create a spiral curriculum of both content and skills. This provides a rigorous structure with in-built progression where topics are regularly revisited through the key stages to ensure that understanding and skills are developed in an age-appropriate way. This enables children to grow in confidence when taking part in discussion, debates and when exploring current issues within PSHE education.

The units are categorised into three key strands: Health, Relationships, and Living in the Wider World. These three strands are mapped against the statutory Relationships and Health Education guidance as well as the ‘Living in the Wider World’ objectives from the PSHE Association Programme of Study. Running parallel to this is the Project Evolve scheme of learning, which embeds the pupils knowledge and understanding of online safety. 

As well as developing specific subject content, lessons build the key skills from the PSHE Association’s Programme of Study: personal effectiveness; interpersonal and social effectiveness; and managing risk and decision making. The development of these skills is essential for pupils to begin to apply their knowledge to their own lives. The range of teaching activities allows for pupils to practise and hone these skills either individually or in a group.
