PSHE

Pupils are taught how to stay safe right from the start of their time at Lewis Street and PSHE lessons commence in Year 1, continuing through to Year 6. All PSHE lessons are age appropriate and taught with care and sensitivity by teachers and Learning Support Assistants. Pupils are taught PSHE weekly and the curriculum is built around 3 distinct themes:

Health and Wellbeing

• Maintaining physical health and wellbeing
• Managing risks to physical health and wellbeing
• Keeping physically and emotionally safe
• Making informed choices about health and wellbeing and recognising sources of help
• Managing change including puberty, transition
• Responding to emergencies
• Identifying different influences on health and wellbeing

Relationships

• Developing and maintaining a variety of healthy relationships
• Recognising risky or negative relationships including forms of bullying and abuse
• Responding to risky or negative relationships and asking for help
• Respecting differences

Living in the Wider World

• Respecting themselves and others and the importance of responsible behaviours and actions
• Rights and Responsibilities as members of families, other groups and communities
• Respecting equality and being a productive member of a diverse community
• Respecting and protecting the environment
• Understanding where money comes from, keeping it safe, the importance of managing it effectively and how important it is to people’s lives
• A basic understanding of enterprise

Revised PSHE policy

Our new policy for PSHE is attached below.

Parent/ Carer questionnaire

Thank you to all parents and carers who responded to our questionnaire in the Autumn term. 

Your wishes and opinions are important to us. We are in the process of producing a new Relationships, Health and Sex Education (RHSE) policy, which will be separate from our PSHE policy. It will be published on the website when it is finished.
