The PSHCE curriculum offer follows the national curriculum in KS1 and KS2 and the EYFS Statutory Framework and Development Matters in the early years. The PSHCE curriculum is ambitious and designed to give all learners, particularly the most disadvantaged and those with special educational needs, the knowledge and cultural capital they need to succeed in life. Where required, pedagogy is adapted so that all pupils including disadvantaged pupils and those with SEND are on the same knowledge journey towards the same endpoints. We have made some enhancements, such as visits from the RNLI, visits from health professionals, and emergency services.

We have developed our own PSHCE curriculum, based on the PSHE Association curriculum building blocks, taking into account the particular needs of our children.  This ensures that all pupils receive key messages relative to their age.  It builds in complexity so that pupils can build on their knowledge and skills.  Knowledge and skills are revisited and refreshed to ensure they become embedded.  Vocabulary is also taught explicitly in every lesson.  Review and retrieval is a key part of every lesson where quick quizzes are used to support this.   

The PSHCE curriculum is set out in the curriculum overview document below.
