Intended Outcomes


Curriculum

At Ford Primary School we use Jigsaw to deliver our PSHE curriculum. This programme teaches children and young people emotional literacy, social- and lifelong skills, RSHE and resilience in an age-appropriate manner. We adapt our sessions to suit the needs of our pupils and Ford community. Our doors are always open to discuss any concerns.

 PSHE lessons are delivered on a weekly basis in Years 1-6. Each year is progressive and builds on the learning from the previous year.

There are six puzzle pieces, and we focus on one each term: Being Me in My World, Celebrating Difference, Dreams and Goals, Healthy Me, Relationships and Changing Me.

Sessions take place in a safe learning environment, where we can connect, share and reflect on these vital life lessons which promote living a safe, healthy and happy life. A variety of opportunities are provided for pupils to ask questions to further their understanding and to find out more about what affects them personally.  

In September 2020, the Department for Education made Relationships and Health Education compulsory in all Primary Schools. "In primary schools, we want the subjects to put in place the key building blocks of healthy, respectful relationships, focusing on family and friendships, in all contexts, including online. This will sit alongside the essential understanding of how to be healthy.". Relationships Education, Relationships and Sex Education and Health Education guidance (publishing.service.gov.uk) 

This is why the programme includes RSHE content. Jigsaw believes that this work is vital to support children’s development, with a strong focus of their scheme being based upon emotional and mental health and wellbeing.
