PSHE and RSE at Ellistown

At Ellistown, our PSHE and RSE curriculum will help our pupils to become well rounded and happy citizens in our society. ​

Our aim at Ellistown is to:​

• Explore a range of topics surrounding emotions, feelings, relationships, aspirations, safety, changes and financial capabilities using engaging stories and videos.​
• Inspire by giving children the tools to become an effective member of society, showing tolerance, resilience and a good understanding of different issues.​
• Spark by creating an honest and open environment where the children feel safe and confident to express their opinions and feelings.​
• Deepen by embedding core values and equipping children with a range of skills that they will need for later in life.​

A child leaving Ellistown will have the explicit tools to help them self-regulate and navigate any personal, social and emotional issues that they may face within their life. PSHE and RSE will be taught through a mixture stand alone lessons, assemblies, themed days or weeks and other curriculum areas throughout their school life. They will understand how to live both physically and healthy lifestyles and understand what a healthy relationship is. The children will know how their body will change and how to keep safe. As a result of this, the children will go onto function successfully within the wider world and have high aspirations for themselves and those around them.
