PSHCE

At Temple Learning Academy our PSHE curriculum has been carefully mapped from Reception to Year 11 based on three strands (Health and Wellbeing, Living in the Wider World and Careers Education).

Each year group builds on the previous and covers any statutory content within these areas. Students acquire the knowledge, skills and understanding necessary to enable them to make informed decisions about all aspects of their lives, as they develop from children into young adults.

Students develop the academy character traits of courage, respect and opportunity through a well sequenced curriculum that is inclusive of all. The curriculum is ambitious and builds on the skills and knowledge pupils have learned as well as encouraging new experiences to embed these skills.

Our PSHCE curriculum is embedded throughout all areas of our curriculum to give depth to the children’s understanding and allow them to experience PSHCE in a range of contexts, including real life contexts.

Throughout the taught Personal Development curriculum, students explore their emotional health and well-being, personal safety, develop financial awareness, learn about British values and citizenship, bullying (including cyber bullying), online safety and digital literacy, character development as well as drug, tobacco, vaping and alcohol education.
