# PSHE

### Personal Social Health Education Curriculum

Our Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education follows a thematic approach in line with the PSHE Association’s guidelines.

This comprehensive program empowers students with the knowledge, skills, and understanding they need to lead confident, healthy, and responsible lives.

The curriculum is divided into three core themes: Health and Wellbeing, Relationships, and Living in the Wider World.

These themes ensure that students develop key life skills, covering topics such as mental health, emotional wellbeing, healthy relationships, financial literacy, and citizenship. By taking a holistic and age-appropriate approach, we support pupils in navigating real-world challenges, making informed decisions, and fostering a positive sense of self and community responsibility.
