PSHE and RSHE

To embrace the challenges of creating a happy and successful adult life, pupils need knowledge that will enable them to make informed decisions about their wellbeing, health and relationships and to build their self-efficacy. Pupils can also put this knowledge into practice as they develop the capacity to make sound decisions when facing risks, challenges and complex contexts. Everyone faces difficult situations in their lives. These subjects can support young people to develop resilience, to know how and when to ask for help, and to know where to access support.

PSHE is embedded within our broad and balanced curriculum. The Pupils' Spiritual Moral, Social and Cultural (SMSC) development is at the heart of our School. Our intention when children leave Belgrave, they will do so with the knowledge, understanding and emotional awareness to be able to play an active, positive and successful role in todays society. We want our children to have high aspirations, a belief in themselves and realise that anything is possible. W

At Belgrave we use two schemes to help us structure and deliver our PSHE and RSHE Curriculum.

1.    The Life Lessons Curriculum

This curriculum provides coverage for all statutory content, as laid out by the 2025 Relationship and Sex Education and Health Education guidance, through an evidence based, peer-led and relational approach. The life lesson resources are designed to improve behaviour and attitudes amongst pupils, helping them to build and maintain healthy relationships and be kind to the people around them. They are taught to understand their feelings, regulate their emotions and make healthy choices that allow them to stay safe, well and happy. There are lessons on respecting diversity, navigating the online world, managing their money and having high aspirations for their futures.

The Life Lesson's curriculum is organised in the following structure:

2.   Christopher Winter Project - Teaching RSE with Confidence in Primary Schools by Teach SRE ltd

Is a whole-school Relationships and Sex Education resource designed for use in Reception through to Year 6. It supports schools to meet the statutory requirements for Relationships Education, key aspects of Health Education, and the statutory and recommended elements of Sex Education.

The resource is designed to support a school’s wider PSHE provision. It is not a full PSHE scheme, but a dedicated RSE resource that provides clear structure, reassurance and consistency for teaching sensitive topics.

Through the no outsiders we promote equality of opportunity and diversity effectively. As a result the pupils understand diversity, appreciate and respect difference in the world and it's people, celebrating the things we share in common across cultural, religious, ethnic and socio-economic communities
