Intent

Here at North Stainley CofE Primary School, we believe that Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education (PSHE) is an important and necessary part of pupils’ education and essential for their emotional wellbeing and growth. PSHE empowers pupils to take a proactive role in their own lives and the life of their community. Through teaching PSHE we promote British values, respect for self and others as well as different beliefs and choices. We also believe that age appropriate Relationship Education and teaching children about the correct use of medicines are important aspects of PSHE education. Our aim is to equip children with skills and knowledge that will enable them to grow and become independent, confident and active learners and citizens. 

PSHE Rationale 

Sex and Relationship Education alongside Personal, Social, Health Education is lifelong learning that helps to give pupils the knowledge, skills and understanding about physical, sexual, moral and emotional development, in turn allowing the pupils to have all the skills to lead confident, healthy, independent lives in order to become informed, active and responsible citizens of the community. It is about the understanding of the importance of stable and loving relationships, respect, love and care, for family life. It involves acquiring information, developing skills and forming positive beliefs, values and attitudes.

In addition, provide balanced information about physical and emotional changes, together with consideration of the broader emotional, ethical, religious, and moral dimensions of sexual health.

RS Education is learning about the emotional, social and physical aspects of growing up, relationships, gender, sex, sexuality and sexual health. RSE is not about the promotion of sexual activity.

PSHE Education promotes the development of the knowledge, skills and attributes pupils need to keep themselves healthy and safe, and prepared for life and work.
