In PSHE, our curriculum focuses on providing pupils with the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to keep them safe, healthy, productive and live fulfilled lives in modern Britain.  We believe that PSHE should also enable children to reflect on and clarify their own values and attitudes, and explore the complex and sometimes conflicting range of values and attitudes they encounter now and in the future. PSHE education is therefore also about developing young people’s sense of identity, their capacity to relate to other people and handle setbacks.

At Didsbury CE, we focus on developing pupils’ emotional literacy which we feel is crucial to developing well-rounded individuals. PSHE lessons contribute to the development of self-awareness, social skills, managing feelings, motivation and empathy.  We are committed to pupil’s well-being and personal development in order to help them thrive across the whole curriculum.
