PERSONAL, SOCIAL AND HEALTH EDUCATION

The Personal, Social, Health and Citizenship aspects of school life contribute to the development of a child's individual identity and sense of self-esteem, and to their emotional maturity and readiness to learn.

At Garlinge we seek to prepare each child to play a valuable and active role in society, and prepare them for the opportunities, challenges, experiences and responsibilities of adult life.

PSHE lessons involve a high level of interaction, where each pupil has planned opportunities for learning through:

The development of a trusting relationship between the teacher and the pupils enabling the consideration of sensitive issues to take place
Collaborative work
Circle time activities
Opportunities for reflection
Respect for each genuinely made contribution
Negotiation
Philosophical enquiry

PSHE is taught through three core themes:

Living in the Wider World
Relationships
Health and Well-being
