PSHE & RSE
Welcome to the PSHE (Personal Social Health and Economic) and RSE (Relationships and Sex Education) curriculum information page. At Mount Primary School we teach all learners to behave as caring, respectful young people with high aspirations for their future and their world. Our PSHE curriculum therefore covers relationships with others, health and wellbeing, living in the wider world, British Values and SMSC. We are also responsive to local issues and ensure topics are addressed as and when is necessary (such as current news stories or issues arising in school). An over-arching focus on mental health is prominent at Mount, where we believe that all pupils should be free to articulate their feelings and understand that mental health is a normal part of daily life.
To find out more about PSHE at Mount, please explore the documents on this page or visit this link to access the Kapow Parent Zone which inlcudes an FAQ section: https://www.kapowprimary.com/subjects/rse-pshe/curriculum/rse-pshe-parent-information/
We follow the Kapow scheme and while our wider PSHE curriculum runs on a two-year rolling cycle (Cycle A and Cycle B) to be taught in our mixed classes, we recognise the sensitive nature of Health, Puberty, and Drug Education. To ensure all material is strictly age-appropriate, these specific units are de-merged and taught to single year-groups, protecting the emotional maturity of our younger pupils.
The PSHE subject leader is: Miss West
