Personal, Social & Health Education (PSHE) Subject Leader - Catherine Cullen At St Michael’s we place huge store in developing children’s personal wellbeing and self-esteem in order to help them develop as whole individuals. Through specific PSHE teaching and input via assemblies, social groups, and where necessary 1:1 work with specialist staff, children develop emotionally, socially and spiritually. We follow the nationally recommended SEAL (Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning) programme as a basis for teaching and learning as well as other discrete units of work. Children are given the opportunity to discuss and consider issues surrounding personal safety, health and hygiene, relationships and friendships (including bullying), financial responsibilities, the effects of alcohol and drugs and how to lead active and responsible lives as citizens both nationally and globally.
In the summer term, children also receive sex and relationships education, and parents have full access to the materials used prior to lessons taking place. The material used is taught at an appropriate level in all years and all teaching is carried out sensitively within the context of caring responsibility and with due regard to the value of family life. |
