PSHE & RSE
Subject Vision
Our Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) and Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) curriculum is designed to equip children with the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need to thrive in an increasingly complex 21st-century world. Through a broad and engaging programme of learning, children explore key topics that help them make informed decisions about their health, wellbeing, safety, relationships and financial responsibilities, both now and in the future.
We want our children to feel confident and prepared when facing challenges, understanding where to seek support and how to keep themselves safe in an ever-changing society. Through PSHE, children learn the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to build positive relationships, understand and manage emotions, stay safe online and offline, develop resilience and self-esteem, make healthy choices and prepare for later life.
When children leave Deptford Park, they will do so with the knowledge, confidence and skills needed to become active, responsible and successful members of society, ready to make a positive contribution to the world around them.
How do children learn PSHE at Deptford Park?
At Deptford Park, we use the Jigsaw curriculum, a whole-school approach that supports children’s personal development, wellbeing and safety. Jigsaw brings together PSHE Education, compulsory Relationships and Health Education, emotional literacy, mindfulness, social skills and spiritual development. It is designed as a whole school approach, with all year groups working on the same theme (Puzzle) at the same time at their own level. There are six Puzzles (half-term units of work) and each year group is taught one lesson per week. All lessons are delivered in an age- and stage-appropriate way so that they meet children’s needs.
The six Puzzles are:
- Being Me in My World
- Celebrating Difference
- Dreams and Goals
- Healthy Me
- Relationships
- Changing Me
How do we know what children have learned?
- Questioning
- Pupil learning reviews
- Learning walks
- Quizzing and retrieval practice
- Progress in folders matches the curriculum intent
