What does a PSHE Lesson look like?<\/strong><\/p>\n

At Birkwood Primary, we use a bespoke lesson structure to ensure previous learning is retrieved and new learning is taught in engaging and purposeful ways.<\/p>\n

This structure is used in every lesson to ensure children continue to develop their understanding of how to be happy, healthy, respectful and most importantly safe. Children work together collaboratively in pairs small groups or during whole class discussion.<\/p>\n

In addition to this, special days and weeks are taught to further develop our children\u2019s personal development.<\/p>\n

How do we ensure children remember more in PSHE? <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
How is the PSHE Curriculum organised?<\/strong><\/td>\nWhat do we use to recall previous knowledge?<\/strong><\/td>\nHow else do we strengthen learning in school?<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
 <\/p>\n

The Core Curriculum<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The core curriculum is organised into 9 themes. Children re-visit these themes each year with a focussed module. Our themes and modules taught are found on the PSHE Overview.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Re-visiting the range of themes each year ensures children are sequentially building on their previous knowledge.<\/td>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Retrieval<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Each lesson begins with an opportunity for children to recall knowledge previously learnt in the module and previous years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The British Values are discussed in each lesson to help children understand how to be a kind & respectful citizen in a modern and diverse Britain.<\/td>\n

Theme days and weeks built into the whole school curriculum<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Throughout the year, children learn through themed days and weeks to further develop their personal development.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

RSE Week<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Anti-bullying Week<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Healthy Eating Week<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Children\u2019s mental Health Week<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mental Health Awareness Week<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

E-Safety Week<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

 <\/p>\n

End Points<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

End points are used to identify what each child should know at the end of each year.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

These end points outline what children should understand about Relationships, Health Education and Living in the Wider World.<\/p>\n

 <\/td>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Children are given opportunities to show what they already know about a theme before the module begins. This allows teachers to identify any gaps in learning and to plan to address these.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After a module, children will show what they have learnt more specifically.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/td>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Assemblies<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Weekly assemblies are delivered by Mr. Wood. Assemblies focus on wider world issues or special events and days. Each assembly refers back to the protected characteristics and our British Values.<\/p>\n
