PSHE Curriculum

Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) Education focuses on strengthening the knowledge, skills and connections to keep young people healthy and safe and to prepare them for life and work.

Our goal is to equip our students with the knowledge, understanding, attitudes and practical skills to live healthily, safely, productively and responsibly.

In ARRK (PSHE), we want our students to be curious, empathetic, self-aware and opinionated. We therefore strive to provide an enriching, engaging and empowering curriculum using a variety of resources and materials to explore a range of issues and ideas. Our ARRK (PSHE) curriculum covers careers, healthy relationships, physical and mental health, money management, online and offline safety, British Values, substances, study skills, and current affairs.

The Holderness Academy curriculum for PSHE aims to ensure that all students:

• Develop empathy and understanding of how the world around us works.
• Develop transferable skills such as analytical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork and communication strategies.
• Are equipped with the appropriate knowledge, tools, strategies and skills they need for life beyond school.
