As a school we have evaluated the gaps in learning for Geography dues to lockdowns and Covid. Please see below for the gaps in PSHE coverage:

Year 6 – Term 3 – Dreams and Goals: our personal learning goals; our dreams for the world; helping make a difference.

Year 5 – Term 2 – Celebrating Differences: respecting different cultures; identifying racism; types of bullying. Term 3 – Dreams and Goals: my dream career; how can I achieve my goals?

Year 4 – Term 3 – Dreams and Goals: my hopes and dreams; broken hopes and dreams and overcoming disappointment; new dreams.

Year 3 – Term 3 – Dreams and Goals: admiring the achievements of others; breaking my own goals down into steps; managing feelings of frustration.

Year 2 – Term 3 – Dreams and Goals: recognising my own achievements; exploring my different learning styles; working in a group to solve problems.

Year 1 – Term 3 – Dreams and Goals: talking about what I do well; exploring the emotions I feel when I come across a new challenge; thinking about how I learn best.

These gaps have been identified and will be covered as part of International Week or are already in the subsequent year’s curriculum, therefore ensuring that all the necessary components are in place for future learning. 

PSHE education is a planned programme of learning though which pupils acquire the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to manage their lives now and in the future. As part of a whole school approach, it develops the qualities and attributes pupils need to thrive as individuals, family members and members of society.

At Lainesmead, we follow the Jigsaw curriculum. Please click on this link for further information:

In addition to Jigsaw, we also deliver PSHE through collective worship, displays, our behaviour policy, our school values, the British Values and our everyday expectations.

Relationships and Sex Education (RSE)

Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) is learning about the emotional, social and physical aspects of growing up, relationships, sex, human sexuality and sexual health.

At Lainesmead, we believe SRE should equip our children and young people with the information, skills and values to have lifelong safe, fulfilling and respectful relationships and to take responsibility for their sexual health and well-being.
