PSHE

Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education is a school subject through which pupils develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they
need to manage their lives, now and in the future. It helps children and young people to stay healthy and safe, while preparing them to make the most of life and work. When taught well, PSHE education also helps pupils to achieve their academic potential.

Intent

Our intention is that when children leave Tattershall Primary School, they will do so with the knowledge, understanding and emotions to be able to play an active, positive and successful role in today’s diverse society. We want our children to have high aspirations, a belief in themselves and realise that anything is possible if they put their mind to it. In an ever–changing world, it is important that they are aware, to an appropriate level, of different factors which will affect their world and that they learn how to deal with these so that they have good mental health and well-being. Our PSHE curriculum develops learning and results in the acquisition of knowledge and skills which will enable children to access the wider curriculum and prepare them to be a global citizen now and in their future roles within a global community. It promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils, preparing them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences for later life. 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.

Implementation

In the Foundation Stage, PSHE and citizenship is taught as an integral part of topic work and is embedded throughout the curriculum. The objectives taught are the Personal, Social and Emotional Development statements from ‘Development Matters in the EYFS’ and the PSED Early Learning Goals.
In key stage 1 and 2 teachers plan from our progression documents, which are underpinned by the Discovery Education scheme of work. PSHE is taught in weekly discrete lessons in year groups, and periodically through events like Anti-Bullying week, Internet Safety Day, developing the themes of Health and Well-Being, Relationships, and Living in the Wider World. The Discovery Education scheme of work is broken down into the follow six topics: Healthy and happy friendships, Similarities and differences, Caring and responsibility, Families and committed relationships, Healthy bodies and healthy minds and Coping with change.

These lessons are delivered in a safe and trusting environment. Staff will create a climate of trust for safe and effective learning, ensuring that ground rules are established or revisited before delivery. It is especially important that pupils show respect and a non-judgemental attitude while discussing any issues that arise in these lessons.
