KS4 Curriculum Booklet

PSHE

The PSHE programme of study aims to promote the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of students. During PSHE lessons in KS4 students learn about Relationships, including topics on healthy and non-healthy relationships and the differences in relationships. Students also have specialist visitors in to deliver sessions on several sensitive issues regarding mental health, stress and their triggers, alcohol and misuse of other substances. As part of the PSHE curriculum students are supported through work experience, applying for college/apprenticeships and future careers. This includes careers interviews during KS4 to support and develop their future choices. As students start Year 11 PSHE has more of a focus on reflecting on their learning within key subject areas. Students are been given the chance to develop their revision and exam technique and making valuable use of extra advice and guidance was given to students to support progress especially in core subjects, Maths, English and Science.
