PSHE Curriculum

PSHE education is an integral part of learning at Huntington Community Primary School, as is encapsulated in our motto Learn to Live, Live to Learn. It is a school subject through which pupils develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to manage their lives, now and in the future. Through the development of these skills they will be able to begin to keep themselves active, healthy and safe, and become increasingly prepared for life and work.

At Huntington CP School, We follow the Jigsaw PSHE Programme, a whole-school, mindful approach that helps children develop the knowledge, skills, and emotional literacy to thrive as individuals and as part of their community.

British Values are promoted through the overarching themes; Health and Wellbeing, Relationships and Living in the Wider World. These values support our children in becoming healthy and respectful members of society, as well as preparing them for their continuing journey of learning and life beyond school. PSHE Association evaluated research ‘PSHE, Academic Attainment and Employability’ states that growing evidence suggests that the skills and attributes acquired through PSHE education have a significant impact on pupils' academic achievement, employability and future life chances.

 

 

 

 

 

Jigsaw PSHE

Jigsaw is a comprehensive scheme of work that covers all aspects of PSHE, including Relationships and Health Education (RHE). It brings together emotional wellbeing, social skills, and spiritual development through engaging, age-appropriate lessons.

Each half term focuses on a different theme, known as a ‘Puzzle’:

  1. Being Me in My World

  2. Celebrating Difference

  3. Dreams and Goals

  4. Healthy Me

  5. Relationships

  6. Changing Me (includes RSE)

Every class takes part in weekly lessons, which include mindfulness techniques to help children calm their minds, focus, and manage emotions.

 

Our Approach

  • We promote kindness, respect, and inclusion through open discussions, circle time, and whole-school themes.

  • Lessons support emotional regulation, confidence, and empathy.

  • PSHE links closely with British Values, SMSC, safeguarding, and wellbeing across our curriculum.

 

Relationships and Sex Education (RSE)

The “Changing Me” unit includes elements of Relationships and Sex Education (RSE), taught in an age-appropriate and sensitive way. Parents are informed in advance and are welcome to discuss the content with staff.

 

Wellbeing and Support

We care deeply about children’s mental health. Our PSHE curriculum encourages pupils to express themselves, build resilience, and ask for help when needed. We also use My Happy Mind, a programme that complements our approach by helping children understand how their brains work and how to develop positive mental health habits.
