PSHE

Our PSHE Curriculum - Personal, Social, Health and Economic

The Dolphin School's PSHE curriculum is built around our children's needs, our community context and the National Curriculum objectives. We incorporate resources and lesson activities from “The Jigsaw Programme” in to our teaching and learning.

Through this, we deliver a comprehensive, carefully thought-through scheme of work which brings consistency and progression to our children’s learning in this vital curriculum area. We constantly look to our community to ensure we listen and work together to co-construct an broad and balanced PSHE curriculum. This means we are regularly reflecting on our approach and adapt it where necessary to ensure that we building on children's prior knowledge and link PSHE to our enquiries as well as to learning across our school curriculum and school values. 

We cover all areas of PSHE for the primary phase including statutory Relationships and Health Education.
