PSHE RSE and the Values Curriculum
PSHE is taught across school explicitly each week in every class. School uses the Kapow scheme for their PSHE and RSE teaching and it covers a range of topics in line with the National Curriculum. Alongside this runs our RSE curriculum looking at relationships and preparing our young people for adulthood. We also follow a values curriculum with a focus in assemblies each half term.
Kapow links directly to the National Curriculum for PSHE and also links closely with many elements of the science curriculum.
PSHE, RSE and Inclusivity

In 2019 the Department for Education published statutory guidance about what should be covered in schools in terms of Relationships and sex education (RSE) and health education.This guidance listed a number of target statements for the end of primary school which fell under the following headings for RSE: Families and people who care for me, Caring friendships, Respectful relationships, Online relationships, Being safe. For Health education the target statements fall under the following headings: Mental wellbeing, Internet safety and harms, Physical health and fitness, Healthy eating, Drugs, alcohol and tobacco, Health and prevention, Basic first aid, Changing adolescent body. This document shows all these target statements and which lessons from our scheme work towards these aims. It highlights lessons which are included in our condensed curriculum offering. Please be assured that all these statements are met within our mixed-age planning as well. This document has recently been updated to include cross-curricular links with our PSHE and RSE scheme. During key stage 2 pupils learn about themselves as growing and changing individuals with their own experiences and ideas, and as members of their communities. They become more mature, independent and self-confident. They learn about the wider world and the interdependence of communities within it. They develop their sense of social justice and moral responsibility and begin to understand that their own choices and behaviour can affect local, national or global issues and political and social institutions. They learn how to take part more fully in school and community activities. As they begin to develop into young adults, they face the changes of puberty and transfer to secondary school with support and encouragement from their school. They learn how to make more confident and informed choices about their health and environment; to take more responsibility, individually and as a group, for their own learning; and to resist bullying. |
