Leadership of PSHE at Grove Primary School.

Accountable: Miss Kirsty Bailey

Responsible: Mrs Danielle Gillings

Intent

At Grove, although students have one timetabled lesson of PSHE (Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education) each week, we believe it underpins the entire curriculum. Our PSHE curriculum forms part of our Positive Lifestyles and our Skills for Learning core teaching and brings together citizenship with personal well-being, while promoting a British values based education. It is

evident in assemblies, in the relationships between staff and pupils and in the interactions between the students themselves. The PSHE curriculum is intended to support the school in developing a cohesive and comprehensive whole-school approach to personal, social, health and economic well-being (PSHE).

Implementation

This curriculum provides a context in order to teach the key skills as outlined below:-

Promote the physical, social and emotional and mental well-being of pupils.
Provide sex and relationships education.
Promote British values.
Promote citizenship and good manners
Promote leadership
Provide a safe place for discussion of current, relevant social issues.
Protect our children from radicalisation.

We deliver PSHE using supporting materials from SCARF. This provide a whole-school approach to building these essential foundations – crucial for children to achieve their best, academically and socially. Mapped to the PSHE Association programmes of study, SCARF is a framework which ensures a comprehensive PSHE and Wellbeing programme throughout the primary years. SCARF is a whole-school approach to promoting behaviour, safety, achievement and wellbeing. Integrated within this is our Sex and Relationships Programme, our Picture News and Actives assembly themes.

Impact

At the end of a unit we consider end of unit assessment statements, which summarise children’s learning against the unit's key learning outcomes.

The document below summarises the Relationships Education, Relationships and Sex Education and Health Education Curriculum for primary school children set out by the National Curriculum.

It is important to note however, that the Statutory Guidance sets out what MUST be covered, not everything that we feel should be covered in our schools. Our PSHE education curriculum covers, and goes beyond, this statutory guidance e.g. economic wellbeing.
