PSHCE and RSE

Our Personal Development curriculum is ambitious and mapped to the PSHE, RSE and Citizenship curricula targeting DEI and incorporating an impressive careers education. Students study statutory topics in PSHCE such as:

• Healthy and Safe Relationships on and offline

• Physical and Mental Health and Well-Being

• Families

• The Law

• Online Conduct and Media literacy

• Financial Literacy

Students also learn about British Values through the Citizenship modules taught via PSHCE: 

• Democracy: A culture based on freedom and equality, where everyone is aware of their rights and responsibilities 

• Rule of law: The need for rules to make a safe and secure environment to live and work 

• Individual liberty: The ability to make choices, such as when considering further education, training, or careers 

• Mutual respect: Treating others with respect and courtesy, and tolerating their views 

• Tolerance:  For those with different faiths and beliefs: Valuing the diversity of the UK 

Our spiral curriculum allows content to be revisited across the key stages, refined age appropriately and knowledge deepened as understanding grows and develops. Personal Development empowers our pupils to understand and celebrate their identity and become healthy, active, safe and responsible citizens. We believe that providing all pupils with quality first teaching, age-appropriate knowledge and challenging experiences through which to explore their character and future career we will create a courageous, kind and curious community – empowering excellence.
