PSHE
PSHE and RSE
INTENT
At Marton cum Grafton Primary School, we aim to support all children to:
- Develop the skills and knowledge to support success in their future in a diverse and challenging society.
- Respect themselves and others including different types of relationships
- Be aware of their own mental health and well-being and how they can influence this
- Understanding of physical and emotional changes they may currently be facing and to deal positively with these changes
- Have the confidence to carefully consider social and moral dilemmas
- Have a knowledge of available help and how to access it  
IMPLEMENTATION
- Staff will maintain a consistent approach in PSHE and RSE via the use of SCARF resources to plan and deliver engaging lessons where learning is evidenced and assessed from Reception to Year 6.
- Lessons will be delivered empathetically, allowing an environment in which sensitive discussions and questioning can take place.
- Pupils will be taught the correct vocabulary to describe themselves, their feelings and their bodies
IMPACT
Children feel safe in school to enable them to thrive and learn in a positive Christian environment. Children begin to have the confidence, supporting knowledge and understanding to approach challenges throughout life. Children know they have both pupils and staff to talk to if they are worried or concerned.
Protected Characteristics
Teaching and learning about protected characteristics is fully integrated into SCARF through age-appropriate content across the spiral curriculum. Some protected characteristics benefit from in-depth coverage that will give children time to explore the knowledge and attitudes that will help them to develop an appreciation of them.
Protected Characteristics:
- Age
- Disability
- Gender re-assignment
- Marriage and civil partnership
- Pregnancy and maternity
- Race
- Religion or belief
- Sex
- Sexual orientation

Relationships & Health Education
From the Summer Term 2020, schools will have to teach Relationships and Health Education.
You can read about these changes in this DfE guide for parents here:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/relationships-sex-and-health-education-guides-for-schools
The DfE also strongly encourages primary schools to deliver sex education to help prepare children for their transition to secondary school.
At our school we are using the leading children’s health and wellbeing charity, Coram Life Education (CLE) to support us in meeting these legal requirements. Using Coram Life Education’s online SCARF teaching resources.

We recognise that parents play a vital part in their child’s RSE, and we encourage you to discuss these themes with your child at home as well. To help you with these discussions, we have listed examples of the activity sheets the children will complete during their PSHE lessons in school.
