Personal and Social Education

A Commitment to Care for the wellbeing of ourselves, others and the environment is a key theme in the PSE curriculum . Opportunities do emerge throughout the year for students to engage in all aspects of Sustainable Development through PSE but this part of our Learning Programme is primarily focussed on developing a self-awareness that will support a greater understanding of a student's role in our achieving Mission.

Recent Examples:

• G9 Dover - Commitment to Care unit developed to look at environmental activism (eg Veggie Wednesdays) and opportunities to demonstrate on campus. This developed into Grade 10 pioneering a waste management service for lunchtimes for entire grade.
• G5, 5 and G8 East - All mentor groups now rotate through environmental stewardship services such as composting, paper recycling, etc.
