Learning for Life
PHSE Co-Ordinator: Mr.T.Chappelle
CurriculumPSHE, RSE and Citizenship education is delivered through our Learning for Life programme. This is a planned, developmental programme of learning through which children and young people acquire the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to manage their lives now and in the future. As part of a whole-school approach, (for example Health Related Fitness in PE lessons) Learning for Life develops the qualities and attributes pupils need to thrive as individuals, family members and members of society. From a Jewish viewpoint, the values underlying Learning for Life are based on the fact that we are all created in the image of God and as such we respect others and we respect ourselves.
Learning for Life education further contributes to personal development by helping pupils to build their confidence, resilience and self-esteem, and to identify and manage risk, make informed choices and understand what influences their decisions. It enables them to recognise, accept and shape their identities, to understand and accommodate difference and change, to manage emotions and to communicate constructively in a variety of settings. Developing an understanding of themselves, empathy and the ability to work with others will help pupils to form and maintain good relationships, develop the essential skills for future employability and better enjoy and manage their lives. In the Sixth Form, both years 12 and 13 have a timetabled ‘Personal Development’ lesson once every fortnight. These sessions focus on areas such as study skills, time management, work experience and employability, UCAS applications, and health and safety. These lessons aim to provide students with the knowledge and skills to succeed as sixth form students, to transition into the next stage of their lives and those beyond. The overarching aim for Learning for Life education is to provide pupils with:
