PSHE

Intent of our offer

​

At Reintegreat we strongly believe that PSHE is an important part of our curriculum. We have tailored the PSHE Associations’ ‘Programme of Study’ to suit our students, school and community; giving careful consideration to our school ethos and aims and our pupils’ needs.

Personal, Social and Health Education focuses on developing skills which are transferable to other subjects across the curriculum and prepare students for the diversity of the world in which we live. It is also paramount that we explore in depth a range of key issues that are pertinent and relevant to the lives of children and young people, so that they be informed and equipped to make decisions that will have a positive impact on their lives.

​

Core Themes

​

Living in the Wider World – this develops students’ knowledge and understanding of their future Choices. Exploring employability skills and provides pupils with the opportunity to research the world of further education, employment and enterprise by having face to face contact with external visitors from industry and further education. They will be given guidance on how to produce CV’s complete application forms as well as how to conduct themselves in interview.

​

Relationships – Through this topic we study the different types of relationships, features and implications of positive and negative relationships. We then explore sexual relationships in an age-appropriate way with learning focused on consent, sexual health, body image, media, and social pressures.

​

Health and Well-being – Through this topic we develop the students’ knowledge and understanding of the skills they need to develop to make informed decisions regarding their own personal health and well-being. We also explore a range of other key concepts around stereotyping, beliefs, cultures and what leads to extremism/right wing ideologies.

​

Implementation - Throughout the year our students follow the PSHE Associations’ three core themes: Health and Wellbeing; Relationships; and Living in the Wider World. We believe these topics to be essential in developing the skills our learners need to be successful, well rounded, rights respecting global citizens and we match the curriculum to ensure our learners are able to be work and life ready. Learning skills that develop our students for their future is fundamental, we develop not only their academic skills but their emotional.

​

The curriculum is engaging and varied using case studies and research that is relevant to our students and our school setting. We have amended the schemes of work at both KS3 and KS4 to include the new Relationships Education, Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) and Health Education’ to follow statutory guidelines. This ensures that the students are very well-equipped for the next stage of their education or employment.

​

It also identifies links to British Values, and SMSC and is taught in such a way as to reflect the overall aims, values, and ethos of the school.

​

Key Stage 4

​

The programme of study continues on from KS3 with a deeper and detailed look into the three core themes, Health and Wellbeing, Relationships, and Living in the Wider World.

So that students can gain knowledge, skills and an understanding they need to lead confident, healthy and independent lives to become informed, active and positive members of a diverse multicultural society. students will take part in a wide range of activities and experiences contributing to the life of the school, the local community.

In Year 11, students will gain a deeper understanding of what effort, revision and resilience looks like in relation to examinations. There is also a real focus on ensuring students get the correct support for post-16 options.
