PSHE
At Great Oldbury, we provide all of our children with knowledge that will enable them to make informed decisions about their well-being, health and relationships. This will ensure that they are ready to embrace the challenges of creating a happy and successful adult life in modern Britain. It is our intent to provide high quality teaching and learning through a coherently planned curriculum which provides children with enriching opportunities to learn new skills, practise and apply embedded skills and allows children quality time to reflect on what it means to them. We aim to prepare pupils adequately for adult life: its decisions, responsibilities, experiences and opportunities, and to allow pupils to develop fully as emotional mature human beings.
PSHE is a crucial part of a child’s education as it gives children access to critical information about themselves and the many facets of the diverse world around them. Children are encouraged to have high aspirations and respect for themselves and for others, within our local, national and global communities. We aim to enable children to develop a deepening knowledge of their health and wellbeing, including their mental and physical health. Our curriculum aims to equip all children with information, skills and values to understand and to be able to cope with the physical and emotional changes that happen during puberty. The information provided is relevant and appropriate to the age and maturity of pupils.
