It is our intent that PSHE enables our children to become healthy, independent and responsible members of society. It is our aim to help them understand how they are developing personally and socially, and tackles many of the moral, social and cultural issues that are part of growing up. By revisiting prior learning in PSHE children will be given the opportunity to develop a deep understanding and apply this in different ways. We intend for children to be self regulated learners who have a wide bank of strategies that they can call upon in a wide range of contexts.

Implementation Learning-

By the end of the 2 year cycle children will have covered 7 main concepts taken from the You, Me & PSHE Leeds scheme of work. These include:

•Mental health and well-being

•Keeping safe and managing risk

•Physical health and well-being

•Identity, society and democracy

•Drug, alcohol and tobacco education

•Careers, financial capability and economic well-being

•Sex and relationships education.

Children will also participate in lessons from D-Side linking to the drug education concept. In addition, children in KS1 will engage in a road safety session linking to the safety concept. There will be opportunities to link other concepts and other areas of learning, such as enterprise and ‘world at work’ so children receive a broad and balanced curriculum.

Knowledge Threads

There are 4 main knowledge threads that will be constantly referred to throughout all of the 7 concepts. These are:

•Healthy Mind

•Resilience

•Feelings and Emotions

•Solving Problems / Critical Thinking

•

Throughout the teaching of the concepts, children will be learning essential vocabulary that will both build upon previous learning whilst allowing for progression.

Children across school will be familiar with the ‘Calm Down Toolkit’ and will use this to support their use of strategies in difficult situations.

PSHE at Rothwell Primary School is planned and taught across a 2 year cycle. This enables accurate coverage of the curriculum, skills and objectives for each year group as well as allowing for progression.

The teaching is planned through ‘phases’ which allow children to build upon previous knowledge and to extend their learning further with new knowledge.

PSHE lessons are timetabled across all phases to be taught once a week. Within each phase, there may be a ‘Mindmate’ lesson with a specific focus to help develop children’s personal, social and emotional development. Children who have been identified as needing more support from their ‘thrive’ assessment will work closely with the pastoral lead who will liaise and work closely with the class teacher.

As part of our curriclum we place a huge importance of helping give the children the startegies they need to tackle everyday life. This is an example of something we create with the children during our units of work and refer to throughout the day when situtaions happen.

This is a fantastic website that can be used at home too. It has a range of strategies to help manage children's feelings and emotions and lots of activities that keep them active too!

These are the knowledge threads that thread through all of our lessons.

In Reception, we have been reading the Colour Monster and talking about our feelings. We have created our very own monsters to represent the different feelings. We have been enjoying using our calm down are to regulate our emotions.

# data[].attributes.body
In Key Stage One we have been learning about the Zones of Regulation and how we can manage our feelings. We have also been thinking about fair and unfair situations and how we can mange these.

# data[].attributes.body
In Key Stage two we have been learning about how we manage our feelings and emotions. As part of this we looked at ways of how we could be supported.

In Lower Key Stage One we hace created a tool kit of all the things we could do to regulate our emotions.

At Rothwell Primary we value the importance of children becoming self-regulated learners. As part of this, we embed the Zones of Regulation into our every day teaching. Children are able to explain what 'zone' they are in (and that this is ok to feel that way) but also how they can we regulate their feelings to get back into the 'green zone' Each class has a display that is referred to and for children to access.

In key Stage One, we have been working on recognising our feelings and what affects these have on our bodies. We have also thought about how we could manage these feelings.
