PSHE at Berrybrook
TEACHING PSHE IN SCHOOL
At Berrybrook, we ensure that the wellbeing and safety of our pupils is paramount. We strive to provide pupils with the building blocks to create children who are aware of emotions and strategies to self-regulate. Our PSHE curriculum is vital in creating this.
Our PSHE curriculum is vital in creating this. Following the SCARF approach, our lessons are taught through 7 key themes:
- Managing My Feelings and Relationships
- Keeping Safe
- Everyone Has a Place
- Online Behaviour and Practical Safety
- Looking After Myself and My Health
- Money and Aspiration
- Growing and Changing: Has age-appropriate plans to cover the physical and emotional changes that happen as children as they grow older, including changes at puberty and how to approach this with confidence. Age-appropriate lessons on relationships and sex education are also included.
At Berrybrook, PSHE is timetabled and taught weekly and is also enhanced by whole-school events for everyone to enjoy and get involved with around important topics such as Anti-Bullying, Children’s Mental Health or Road Safety.
By the time our pupils leave us, our aim is for them to be well-rounded citizens. We aim for our pupils to be accepting of everyone – no matter their race, gender, orientation or background; for our pupils to have an awareness of their own emotions and mental health and the strategies they can use to support this; for our pupils to understand how to stay safe in every way and to know what is acceptable behaviour; and for them to know how and who to ask for help when they need it.
