Our vision for PSHE (Personal, Social , Health and Economic Education) and RSE (Relationship and Sex Education)
Intent
The aims of PSHE and RSE at Ainderby Steeple Church of England Primary School are to enable the children:
To know and understand what constitutes a healthy lifestyle
To have the knowledge to keep themselves safe including online
To understand what makes a good relationship with others – to show kindness, care and compassion
To have respect for others regardless of religion, race, gender, mental or physical disability
To be independent and responsible members of the school community and beyond
To be positive and active members of a democratic society and be prepared for life in Modern Britain
To develop self-confidence, resilience and self-esteem and make informed choices regarding personal and social issues
To develop good relationships with other members of the school and the wider community, and support emotional wellbeing
To ensure that drug education, financial education, relationship and sex education (RSE) and the importance of physical activity and diet for a healthy lifestyle are effective.
What does PSHE and RSE look like at our school?
Implementation
We use the resource Kapow to cover the elements of PSHE and RSE which have been split across the 2-year rolling programme.
These are:
Families and relationships
Health and wellbeing
Safety and changing body
Citizenship
Economic wellbeing
Transition
Opportunities to celebrate PSHE and RSE
Our school encourage pupils to take responsibility for aspects of school life. These include our Children’s School Council, Buddy System, Eco Team, Huff and Puff Leaders, Health and Safety Team, Librarians and Road Safety Officers.
The school has strong links to the local community, St Helen’s Church and parents which supports pupils in becoming responsible citizens, and in embedding British and Christian values.
