Intent
We enable children to develop a deepening knowledge of their health and wellbeing, including their mental and physical health. PSHE supports our children to become healthy, independent and responsible members of society. We support children to recognise how they are developing personally and social. PSHE also empowers us to challenge many of the social, moral and cultural issues that are part of society today.
Implementation
At The William Hogarth School, we use a variety of resources to support children’s Personal Social Health and Emotional Education. The main scheme that we use is Jigsaw. Within Jigsaw the children cover the same six topics each year, building on these exponentially each year. These six topics have been identified as focal points in a child’s development.
Impact
Displays
Around our school you will see a variety of celebratory and functioning displays. In our classrooms, we have a working wall that focusses on our current PSHE unit. We also have displays that celebrate a particular idea or theme within the class.
Floor books
Our floor books feature a range of pictures and pieces of work from our PSHE topics. We also endeavour to feature whole school events such as: Children’s Mental Health Week, The Hogarth High Tea and The 10 Metre Challenge.
School events
Express yourself day – part of our celebration of Children’s Mental Health week.
We often have visits from outside agencies. This year we have had safety talks from the police and TFL. Teaching our children important life skills.
Each year group holds a class assembly that focuses on an area of social and cultural capital.
Across the school we celebrated International Women’s week. Each class chose an inspirational female figure to research.
