Our aim is to provide a comprehensive education that equips students with the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to lead healthy, fulfilling lives. We believe that a robust PSHEC education contributes to the personal and social development of our students, preparing them for the challenges and opportunities they will encounter as responsible citizens.

  3. Safety and Citizenship: Equip students with the knowledge and skills to stay safe and make responsible choices as active citizens.
  4. Economic Awareness: Introduce economic awareness, providing a foundation for understanding financial literacy and economic principles.

To achieve our PSHEC curriculum goals, we have chosen to collaborate with Kapow, a platform that aligns with our teaching philosophy and provides comprehensive resources and tools for delivering dynamic and engaging PSHEC lessons. Kapow supports our educators in creating an interactive and immersive PSHEC curriculum.

Impact:

We anticipate a positive impact on our students’ well-being, social skills, and preparedness for responsible citizenship. The impact of our PSHEC curriculum, supported by Kapow, will be measured through students’ personal development, social interactions, and their ability to make informed and responsible choices.
