Personal, Social, Health Economic (PSHE) Education

PSHE does not currently have National Curriculum objectives but there is a clear requirement that schools promote the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils and should make provision for PSHE, drawing on good practice.

Sacred Heart's PSHE  provision focuses on helping children develop the skills to build and maintain friendships, to recognise and manage their emotions, to know how to keep themselves safe, to understand and manage change in their lives, including as their bodies change and for Year 6 children, the change as they transfer to secondary school.

The new Relationships Education primary curriculum is part of our PSHE provision. This aims to put in place the building blocks needed for positive and safe relationships of all kinds - including how to treat each other with kindness, and recognising the difference between online and offline friendships.
