Personal, Social and Health Education
PSHE education is a planned programme of learning through which children and young people acquire the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to manage their lives. As part of a whole school approach, PSHE develops the qualities and attributes pupils need to thrive as individuals, family members and members of society." The PSHE Association
In September 2013, the DfE published a new National Curriculum. Whilst PSHE education remains a non-statutory subject, section 2.5 of the National Curriculum framework document states that:
‘All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), drawing on good practice.’
At Globe we believe Personal, Social and Health Education is a crucial element of the school curriculum. Unless children are healthy, secure and confident in making relationships and able to make right choices for themselves they will not learn to be successful learners and achieve their best.
PSHE is embedded throughout daily life at Globe. We model positive relationships, self image and communication skills in all our day-to-day interactions, as well as teaching skills explicitly in PSHE lessons.
At Globe we use the widely respected ‘Jigsaw’ scheme of work to teach discrete PSHE. We have the following whole school topics and each phase is taught their appropriate element of the scheme appropriate to their age group and maturity.
The overview is as follows:
Being in My World
Includes understanding my place in the class, school and global community as well as devising Learning Charters.
Includes anti-bullying (cyber and homophobic bullying included) and diversity work.
Dreams and Goals
Includes goal-setting, aspirations, working together to design and organise fund-raising events.
Includes drugs and alcohol education, self-esteem and confidence as well as healthy lifestyle choices.
Includes understanding friendship, family and other relationships, conflict resolution and communication skills.
Includes Sex and Relationship Education in the context of looking at change.
