PSHE

 The Intent of PSHE at Kirkburton CE First School

At Kirkburton First School, we aim to provide a high-quality PSHE curriculum that will develop skills and attributes to help children know and value who they are and how they relate to other people in this ever-changing world. We want to prepare pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities, and experiences of adult life, give pupils the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their health and well-being, support pupils skills to recognise positive, healthy and respectful relationships, as well as safe guard pupils, so they can find and access help and support. We aim to teach pupils tolerance, the importance of equality, and respect for diversity as well as develop pupils’ self-respect and self-worth, confidence and empathy.

The Implementation fo PSHE at Kirkburton CE First School

At Kirkburton First School we use a whole school PSHE scheme called Jigsaw. Jigsaw combines PSHE, emotional literacy, mindfulness, social skills and spiritual development, it is designed as a whole school approach, with all children working on the same theme (Puzzle) at the same time.

There are six Puzzles (half-term units of work) each with six pieces (lessons). Each year group studies the same Puzzle at the same time. Each year group is taught one lesson per week and all lessons are delivered in an age – and stage – appropriate way so that children’s needs are met.
