The curriculum of the school should be balanced and broadly based to promote the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils at the school and in society and also prepares such pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of adult life. PSHEE is a non-statutory area of the curriculum which makes a major contribution to the five outcomes of the Every Child Matters agenda and also to section 4 of the Self Evaluation Form for schools.
However, there are many systems of delivery - some structured using discrete classroom time - but often delivered across the curriculum supported by 'bolt on' activity days. This course will show delegates how a cross curricular approach to PSHEE can result in a quality programme, meeting all the requirements of the new programmes of study and providing pupils with a cohesive learning experience.
