PSHE and RSE
Information
PSHE includes everything our school does to promote pupils’ good health and well-being and is backed by the National Healthy Schools Programme. as part of the Gloucestershire Health Authority.
Our PSHE curriculum shows how we help children to be healthy, happy, economically secure and successful citizens, much of our work is fundamental supported and developed through those day to day interactions with the children via our school ethos, values, collective worship and development of the individual.
Our PSHE curriculum is divided into core themes which are:
- Health and Wellbeing
- RSE and Health
- Economic Development
- Social and Emotional Development
- Citizenship and Living in the Wider World
Additional to this we do blocks of work on safety awareness, sustainable and safe journeys to school and explicit teaching of drug awareness and relationships and sex education (RSE*). Any issues that arise for specific children, year groups or due to external influences may also be built into PSHCE and classroom discussions. This is part of being responsive to our children’s needs. Our citizenship strand also demonstrates how we promote fundamental British values (democracy, rule of law, individual liberty and respect and tolerance of / for others).
Lakefield Church of England Primary School follows the Coram Life scheme of work which covers all of the statutory aspects of PSHE and RSE. More information about CORAM/SCARF can be found here: CORAM/SCARF.
