PSHE

  • At Key Stage 1 and 2, the key knowledge progression document takes full account of the programme of study for PSHE education and uses the following strands:

    • Health and Wellbeing

    • Relationships

    • Living in the Wider World

  • The above strands have been chosen above as they replicate the PSHE Association programme of study.

  • The statements in bold are from the RSE and Health Education statutory guidance.

  • The statement about FGM has been moved from Keeping Safe to Safe Relationships as we feel it sits within this strand where private body parts and permission are discussed.

  • Skills are dependent on specific knowledge. A skill is the capacity to perform or discuss and in order to do this a deep body of knowledge needs to be acquired and retained.

  • These knowledge statements should be what pupils retain forever. In other words, this knowledge is within their long-term memory and will be retained.

  • When considering pupils’ improvement in subject specific vocabulary, pupils could be provided with a knowledge organiser which contains the relevant words used for PSHE for their age group.
