PSHE & RSE

Curriculum Intent: 

St Columba aims to give children the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that they need to become independent, responsible, healthy and confident members of society. The curriculum covers key areas which will support children to make informed choices now and in the future around their health, safety, wellbeing, relationships, and financial matters. St Columba use the Kapow Primary’s RSE/PSHE scheme of work which covers the Relationships and Health Education statutory guidance (as set out by the Department for Education), including the non-statutory sex education in Key Stage 2. The scheme also covers wider PSHE learning, in line with the requirement of the National curriculum (2014) that schools ‘should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE).’ Children’s learning through this scheme significantly contributes to their personal development from the Early Years to Upper Key Stage 2.
