Wensley Fold CE Primary Academy

PSHE/Life Education & Citizenship

Our Vision For PSHE/Life Education & Citizenship

At Wensley Fold we follow our own scheme of work tailored to the needs of our pupils. Each class has timetabled Life Education time but we encourage a cross curricular approach to the development of Life Education.
Life Education is embedded throughout daily life at Wensley Fold. We model positive relationships, self-image and communication skills with others in all of our day-to-day interactions, as well as teaching skills explicitly in Circle Time and in Life Education sessions including our annual themed campaigns (eg friendship week, white Christmas campaign, one treat a day etc.) which have a different focus each year according to the needs of our pupils and our community. In our programmes we actively promote British Values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs to prepare our pupils for life in modern day Britain. Our citizenship lessons enable our pupils to understand the British democratic process and how to effect peaceful change in society. We DO NOT teach sex education. We do teach puberty at year 5 which also forms part of our science curriculum.
At Wensley Fold we make each day count and aim to ensure that we produce well-rounded, happy, healthy, resilient children – ready for the wider world.
