PSHE
“The education of even a small child, therefore, does not aim at preparing him for school, but for life.” – Maria Montessori
Our curriculum is designed to help students to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to thrive as individuals members of society. Our curriculum enables students to make responsible decisions about choices in their lives such as their health and relationships. Giving them the skills to succeed in their next stages in life and beyond. Our curriculum helps students to manage many of the most critical opportunities, challenges and responsibilities they will face growing up.
PSHE lessons are intended to engage students through high quality, evidence-based and age-appropriate teaching. PSHE lessons help prepare pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of adult life and promote the spiritual, moral, social, cultural, mental and physical development of students, at school and in society.
PSHE lessons help students to identify their personal qualities, attitudes, skills, attributes and achievements and what influences these. To explore their attitudes, values and beliefs about them and develop the skills, language and strategies needed to manage any issues they encounter in their lives. Lessons help students to apply academic skills such as critical thinking and resilience, to their approach to the study of PSHE. Equip all students with the knowledge and skills they need to stay safe and be able to communicate when they do not feel safe.
