PSHE and RSE

Intent

It is known that there is a clear link between children’s mental well-being and their attainment in school, and we believe that our curriculum enables our children to become healthy, independent, resilient and responsible members of society who show positive behaviours. Our PSHE education plays a fundamental role in our children’s Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural development and provides opportunities for the promotion of British Values.  We intend for our children to understand rights and responsibilities and appreciate what it means to be a member of a diverse, democratic society.  We strive to make lessons engaging and memorable and create a safe environment for our children to learn and develop their understanding of relationships, valuing difference, keeping safe, identifying rights and responsibilities, being my best and growing and changing; which includes Relationships and Sex education. Children have opportunities to share their thoughts as individuals, as part of group discussions, by acting out scenarios, listening to songs and watching videos. Lessons are practical and allow exploration in a fluid way to meet the children’s needs. As children leave the school we believe that they are ready for their next journey, and that we cement the foundations of their personal, moral, cultural and social growth.

 

Implementation

We follow the 2014 National Curriculum and our expectation is that all children are showing progress in line with national expectations. It is the responsibility of each class teacher to monitor and ensure that this progress is made. The subject leader works with each teacher to monitor this progress and to ensure that sufficient challenge is given to each child.

Impact

 

Teachers measure the impact of the curriculum through formative and summative assessment. From this assessment teachers will adapt and change their planning according to the needs of all of the children.

Subject leaders will also measure the impact of the curriculum through learning walks, pupil voice and teacher surveys.

Individual pupil data, in accordance with objectives within the National Curriculum, is collected and analysed three times a year. This data is recorded on the school’s electronic data base (INSIGHT) to monitor attainment and progress.

 

Relationship and Sex Education

Relationship and Sex Education (RSE) is part of our PSHE program. We use the SCARF scheme of work to deliver the key areas of RSE. We have reviewed our policies and published some documents to help understand what we will be teaching.
