PHSE

At Tankersley St Peters we are committed to ensuring that Personal Social and Health education (including Sex and Relationships education) is taught weekly in a dedicated lesson. We use the 1Decision scheme to ensure that all areas are taught effectively and progressively. This programme is made up of a series of well-planned themes and sequences of learning, covering essential areas such as mental health, first aid, relationships, sex education and other themes that pupils need to thrive as individuals, family members and members of a wider society. Interactive ‘real life’ scenarios are incorporated in videos where children have to make decisions about how they might react to and address different situations. This innovative programme prepares our pupils for the challenges and responsibilities they will face growing up in such rapidly changing times. For example, staying safe online, peer pressure and other key areas for young people are covered in detail. In our PHSE and SRE programmes, we actively promote British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs to prepare our pupils for life in modern day Britain. We run workshops for parents and have consulted with them to ensure they are fully informed of what their child will learn.
