Welcome to

Moston Lane Community Primary School

PSHE

 

 

Hi, my name is Mrs Houldsworth and I am the PSHE / RSE Coordinator at Moston Lane. I am passionate about PSHE and believe it is a vital part of our curriculum! I love watching our children grow holistically and become confident, healthy and independent young people when they reach Year 6. I believe that PSHE / RSE prepares children for the wider world and enables them to make an active contribution to their communities. At Moston Lane, we always encourage our children to ‘Be the Best they can Be!’

Intent

At Moston Lane Primary School, our intention is to provide a PSHE curriculum that is broad, balanced and effective. We strive to ensure that all pupils develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to lead confident, healthy and independent lives, regardless of their background, needs or abilities.

 

We provide a wide range of explicit and implicit learning opportunities and experiences that promote the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of our pupils as they move through the primary phase. It builds on the skills that pupils started to acquire during the Early Years Foundation stage (EYFS) to develop effective relationships, assume greater personal responsibility and manage personal safety, including online. Our PSHE curriculum helps pupils to manage the physical and emotional changes during puberty, introduces them to the wider world and enables them to make an active contribution to their communities.

 We aim to create a positive, safe and supportive learning environment that prepares our pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life. We always encourage our pupils to be the best they can be! 

Implementation

At Moston Lane, we adopt a whole school approach to the teaching of PSHE. We employ a variety of teaching strategies to implement our PSHE curriculum. Through a multisensory, collaborative teaching approach, we ensure that all needs are catered for, allowing all pupils to participate fully and effectively.

PSHE is taught through weekly 1-hour discrete sessions for each year group. Additionally, pupils are offered a wide range of opportunities to engage with concepts and content of PSHE through other subjects within the curriculum including Science, Religious Education, Physical Education and Computing. Our PSHE curriculum is further enriched through school assemblies, out of school activities including trips and local visits and also working with external agencies and members of the community. Pupils are given opportunities to participate and contribute to local and national initiatives and campaigns, including charity fundraising events. PSHE values are also explored through practical activities such as group discussions, problem-solving activities, games, role play and investigations. These additional experiences will help pupils make connections between their learning and ‘real life’ behaviours.

PSHE is further enhanced through the development of our school council. Electing a team of Head Boy / Girl and Deputy children promotes pupil voice at Moston Lane. Working closely with other schools encourages and empowers our pupils by helping them to use their voice in a meaningful and effective way.

Impact

Our PSHE education is guided by the values of honesty, kindness, trust, responsibility, friendship, self-control, empathy, respect and tolerance. This approach enables holistic development as well as ensure progression in PSHE. 

Assessment is a crucial aspect of PSHE education. Pupil progress in PSHE is assessed formatively on a day to day basis, as well as summatively every term. It involves a baseline assessment to understand pupils' prior learning, to ensure that new learning is relevant and good progress can be assessed. It also involves planning lessons which builds on pupils' prior knowledge to show progression in PSHE. We assess and provide evidence of our pupils’ learning and progression through assessment tasks at the beginning and end of a topic. This task is the formal opportunity for teacher assessment which uses a best-fit approach, allowing the teacher to decide whether the child is working at, working towards or beyond. We use self and peer assessment to involve children in their own learning and next steps and we provide our pupils the opportunity to reflect on their learning and identify future learning needs. Regular assessment of PSHE allows for any child in need of intervention to receive it to ensure progression.

 Our PSHE curriculum and assessment is built to ensure all pupils make good progress to meet or exceed age-related expectations and have an enhanced cultural capital. This assessment allows the leadership team, parents, governors and school inspectors to see PSHE education’s impact on our pupils and whole school

outcomes, such as Ofsted judgements on personal development, safeguarding, spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) development and the promotion of fundamental British values.

Jigsaw Scheme of Work

At Moston Lane, we have recently introduced a whole school PSHE scheme of work called ‘Jigsaw.’ This scheme of learning offers a comprehensive Programme for Primary PSHE, including statutory Relationships and Health Education. It is delivered through a spiral, progressive and planned scheme of work, focusing strongly on emotional literacy, mindfulness, building resilience and nurturing mental and physical health and giving our children the relevant learning experiences to help them navigate their world.

To find out more information about the Jigsaw Scheme, please refer to the introductory document below:

British Values

 

Jigsaw contributes to the British Values agenda very significantly, both through the direct teaching of information and through the experiential learning children will enjoy. The 5 strands of the British Values agenda: Democracy, Rule of Law, Individual Liberty, Mutual Respect and Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs have been mapped across every Puzzle and every Piece (lesson).

To find out more information about how Jigsaw fully covers Fundamental British Values as part of our SMSC provision, please refer to the document below:

SMSC

Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural Development

SMSC (Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural) development opportunities are mapped throughout the Jigsaw scheme of work. All these pieces of learning are brought together to form a cohesive picture, helping children to know and value who they are and understand how they relate to other people in the world.

To find out more information about where SMSC and Emotional Literacy development opportunities exist within Jigsaw, please refer to the document below:
