PSHE ia an entitlement to all pupils in school.
The framework for its delivery in school should provide opportunities for pupils to reach their full potential.
|
|
A PSHE Curriculum should:
1. Raise pupils' confidence and self-esteem by reminding pupils and teachers of the importance of respecting everyone as an individual and appreciating effort;
2. Offer an especially supportive climate for learning;
3. Provide a foundation for acquiring the skills needed to learn and grow up at ease with oneself;
4. Increase pupils' motivation and deepen their understanding through providing relevant opportunities for 'real life' learning;
5. Improve pupils' ability to reflect on and become responsible for their own learning;
6. Reduce the chances that pupils' education will be interrupted or impaired, for example, by unintended pregnancy, excessive drug abuse or fear of bullying.
The four main strands concerned with PHSE are:
1. Personal development - developing confidence and responsibility and making the most of their abilities.
2. Active citizens - Preparing to play an active role as citizens.
3. Health and Safety - Developing a healthy and safer lifestyle.
4. Relationships - Developing good relationships and respecting the differences between people.
The job of the PSHE coordinator is to ensure that all pupis recieve this entitlement so that it may provide them with the knowledge skills and understanding to become informed, responsible citizens in todays communities.
