PSHE

Our PSHE programme promotes children's personal, social and economic development, as well as their health and wellbeing. It helps to give children the knowledge, skills and understanding they need to lead confident, healthy, independent lives and to become informed, active, responsible citizens. At Bill Quay Primary School, children’s wellbeing, happiness and safety are our first priority, and PSHE is the key vehicle through which we share this with children. We regard PSHE as an important, integral component of the whole curriculum; it is central to our approach and at the core of our ethos.  Our PSHE curriculum is broad and balanced, ensuring that it:

• Promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of our children and of society;
• Prepares our children for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences they already face and for adult life;
• Provides information about keeping healthy and safe, emotionally and physically;
• Encourages our children to understand how all actions have consequences and how they can make informed choices to help themselves, others and the environment.
• It follows the character education framework to develop the essential skills of empathy, resilience etc (Commando Joe's)

During 2019/2020 we have worked alongside the Anti-Bullying Alliance (ABA) to create a safe and positive learning environment.  As a result of our hard work, I am pleased to announce we have achieved the gold award!
