How do you feel? Our youngest children in school, and beyond, learn about the different emotions that we can feel at different times.

Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education programme.
Relationships, Health & Sex Education – (RSE)
Intent
At Worsthorne Primary, our PSHE curriculum is designed to be bespoke to the needs of our children, reflecting the unique context of Worsthorne school community. We ensure that the teaching and learning of PSHE is fully meeting statutory requirements, including those set out by the Department for Education. It aims to nurture inquisitive minds, equipping pupils with the knowledge, skills, and resilience to address the ever-changing issues of the modern world. Through carefully planned and sequenced bespoke learning, children are supported to develop critical thinking, confidence, and the ability to make informed decisions that will prepare them for life beyond school.
Central to our approach is the recognition of the vital role that PSHE and RSE play in safeguarding. By embedding these subjects across the curriculum, we ensure that pupils understand how to keep themselves safe, build healthy and respectful relationships, and develop the values needed to thrive in society.
Our curriculum is adapted and aligned with the updated 2025 statutory guidance, due for implementation by September 2026, ensuring that our curriculum remains current, compliant, and responsive to national expectations while continuing to reflect the needs of our pupils. by delivering a programme of study that is bespoke to our school and all our children.
