PSHE
PSHE
At Yew Tree, we teach the majority of our PSHE (Personal, Social & Health Education) curriculum using a scheme called Jigsaw. The Jigsaw curriculum overviews are included below for your information. Further information about our curriculum is available below but do get in touch if you have any questions.
In line with requirements from the Department for Education (DfE), our PSHE curriculum content is available for parents/carers to view. If any parents/carers would like access to Jigsaw curriculum content/teaching materials, please contact your child's class teacher as they will be able to provide a link to a portal which gives time limited access to the resources.
Digital Literacy in PSHE
Relationship & Health Education (RHE)
Our RHE curriculum is designed to match guidelines from the Department for Education. Any changes to our approach shall be noted on this page and, where changes are made, there shall be full consultation with parents/carers.
If parents/carers wish to withdraw their child from the Sex Education elements of the RHE curriculum (although it is important to note that some aspects are covered within the 'health' part of the RHE curriculum), they should contact the Head Teacher. Please note that Sex Education is not the same as Relationships Education so a conversation with school is important to ensure there is a full understanding of the aspects of the curriculum a child can be withdrawn from.
Currently, at Yew Tree Primary School, we do not teach any additional optional elements of Sex Education beyond those which are statutory as part of RHE.
DfE RHE Guidance & Information
RHE Consultation
In line with statutory guidance from the DfE, Yew Tree Primary has updated its PSHE curriculum for 20/21 and onwards to incorporate RHE. Information about the approach we have planned was shared with parents/carers on Tuesday 22nd September 2019.
Information shared at the meeting has been uploaded below for those who were not able to make the meeting.
The consultation has now closed and the feedback from this process is posted below. After giving due consideration to the feedback provided, the Senior Leadership Team and the Governing Body have agreed to implement RHE as planned. If you have any questions related to this, please get in touch via the office.
