Curriculum Lead: KS1: Kim Fenton KS2: Rebekah Fry
Intent:
A philosopher leaving BLC at the end of Year 6 will have received personal, social, emotional and health education with a big focus on emotional literacy and mental health to produce active and reflective citizens of the world.
Implementation:
We teach PSHE in weekly dedicated slots following the Jigsaw curriculum ensuring planned progression throughout the years. Jigsaw is a mindful approach to PSHE in a progressive and spiral scheme of learning. In lessons, Jigsaw ensures that learning from previous years is revisited and extended, adding new concepts, knowledge and skills, year on year as appropriate.
Impact:
We know that we have created a philosopher if children can:

RSE (Relationships and Sex Education) and Health Education
Our RSE scheme follows the Christopher Winter Project (CWP) resource ‘Teaching SRE with Confidence in Primary Schools’. The CWP scheme of work, has been quality assured by the PSHE training association and reflects the recent developments in RSE and the Science National Curriculum. It is a comprehensive scheme of work which has lesson plans and resources from Reception to Year 6.
Within the resource, there is an increased focus on safeguarding and keeping children safe. The resource also encourages children to develop the skills of listening, empathy, talking about feelings and relationships with families and friends. The resources in this scheme are age and developmentally appropriate.
