PSHE
PSHE develops the qualities and attributes students need to thrive as individuals, family members, and members of society.
PSHE education is a school subject through which students develop the knowledge, skills, and attributes they need to keep themselves healthy and safe, and prepare for life and work in modern Britain. Evidence shows that well-delivered PSHE programmes have an impact on both academic and non-academic outcomes for students, particularly the most vulnerable and disadvantaged.
Instilling Confidence
Throughout the PSHE curriculum students are encouraged to be expressive with their thoughts and be engaged with their learning. The delivery of the lessons is aimed to be interactive, dynamic, practical, and easily adaptable to different learning styles.
