PSHE & C

PSHE Education (Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education) is a planned programme of learning through which children acquire the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to successfully manage their lives – now and in the future. Our PSHE curriculum, called ‘Jigsaw’ in line with the National Curriculum for Key Stages 1 and 2:

• promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils at the school and of society, and
• prepares pupils at the school for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life.
•  

Additionally, Jigsaw meets the requirements as detailed in the EYFS framework:

“Every child deserves the best possible start in life and the support that enables them to fulfil their potential. Children develop quickly in the early years and a child’s experiences between birth and age five have a major impact on their future life chances. A secure, safe and happy childhood is important in its own right. Good parenting and high quality early learning together provide the foundation children need to make the most of their abilities and talents as they grow up.”

Our PSHE curriculum is organised into units of work, called ‘Puzzles’ which each year group studies each year:

1. Being Me In My World
2. Celebrating Difference
3. Dreams and Goals
4. Healthy Me
5. Relationships
6. Changing Me

At Belmont Primary School, in our PSHE lessons, we teach the statutory Relationships and Health Education topics as well as the Sex Education topic which are taught in Year 5 and Year 6.
