PSHE

Personal, Social, Health Education and Citizenship

 

Here, at Dunchurch Boughton C of E Junior Academy, we value PSHE as a key way to support children’s development as human beings, to enable them to understand and respect who they are, to empower them with a voice and to equip them for life and learning. 

 

At Dunchurch, we teach Personal, Social, Health Education as a whole-school approach. We include the statutory Relationships and Health Education within our whole-school PSHE Programme. 

 

To ensure progression and a spiral curriculum, we use Jigsaw, the mindful approach to PSHE, as our chosen teaching and learning programme and tailor it to children’s needs. We allocate 60 minutes to PSHE each week in order to teach the PSHE knowledge and skills in a developmental and age-appropriate way. These explicit lessons are reinforced and enhanced in many ways:  

Assemblies and collective worship, praise and reward system, Learning Charter, through relationships child to child, adult to child and adult to adult across the school.

 

The Jigsaw scheme and teaching, fits well with our school vision and school values: kindness, peace, patience, thankfulness, forgiveness, generosity and honesty.

 

We aim to ‘live’ what is learnt and apply it to everyday situations in the school community.
