Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE)
The educational programme for physical development, set out in the EYFS Framework, is delivered in our reception classes in line with the Extend Reception Curriculum.
Key Stage 1 and 2 – Personal, Social, Health and Economic education
Personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) education is an important and necessary part of all pupils’ education. The government asks schools to tailor their local PSHE programme to reflect the needs of their pupils and to use their PSHE education programme to equip pupils with a sound understanding of risk and with the knowledge and skills necessary to make safe and informed decisions.
We follow the Jigsaw PSHE 3-11 scheme of work to deliver a curriculum that helps children understand themselves and their world. This scheme of work also meets the requirements of the statutory curriculums for relationships education and health education.
Curriculum Overview
One key area of learning is taught per term. The school has carefully planned the order in which the units are taught to complement other areas of the curriculum and, therefore, they may not be taught in the order shown.
