At East Park, our weekly PSHE/RSE sessions throughout school are called 'Growing Hearts and Minds' sessions.
We believe that PSHE/RSE is an integral part of our curriculum because it…
- Enables pupils to develop the knowledge, skills and understanding they need to lead confident, healthy, independent lives and to become informed, active responsible citizens.
- Allows all children to enhance their moral, social and cultural development.
- Develops the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to manage their lives, now and in the future.
- Helps children and young people to stay healthy and safe, while preparing them to make the most of life and work.
- Enables them to make an active contribution to their communities.
- Helps pupils to achieve their academic potential.
Without PSHE/RSE, children would not be able to…
- Engage with current issues.
- Make clear informed choices about new challenges and critical opportunities that will arise as they grow up.
- Become responsible adults.
- Develop effective and safe relationships.
- Assume greater personal responsibility and manage personal safety, including online.
- Manage the physical and emotional changes at puberty
