PHSE (Personal, Social and Health Education)
PSHE is taught to all students during a timetabled hour-long lesson, as well as strands being delivered during tutor-time, assemblies and alternative curriculum events. Each half-term explores core knowledge under one of 3 key themes – Health and Wellbeing, Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) and Living In The Wider World.
The personal development curriculum also includes our Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) provision and Citizenship national curriculum.
The PSHE curriculum complements themes delivered in other curriculum areas, such as PE, Science, RS and Computing.
Evaluation of knowledge and understanding is achieved via baseline and an end-of-topic questions which are self- and peer-assessed.
