Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education
Personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) education is an important and necessary part of all pupils’ education and at Copleston we provide a wide and diverse range of information to build on the statutory content already outlined in the national curriculum, the basic school curriculum and in statutory guidance on: drug education, financial education, sex and relationship education (SRE) and the importance of physical activity and diet for a healthy lifestyle.
This is a non-statutory subject and we deliver our PSHE education programme to equip pupils with a sound understanding of risk and with the knowledge and skills necessary to make safe and informed decisions.
Our curriculum has recently been re-developed and covers additional current topics such as sexual harassment, social media usage and safety as well as equality and diversity. Many of these topics are also reinforced via our BASE and APEX tutor time programmes.
