Overview

PSHE (Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education) fosters confident, responsible and self-aware students. Our curriculum nurtures social, moral and cultural capital, equipping pupils with essential life skills for a healthy, successful future.

PSHE is a school subject through which pupils develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to manage their lives, now and in the future. These skills and attributes help pupils to stay healthy, safe and prepare them for life and work in a modern, changing society. The course is made up of three strands and is taught by tutors in the form of one lesson every cycle.
