PRE and PSHE

What is it like to study this subject?

PSHE students at Hassenbrook Academy  enjoy well planned and engaging lessons across a range of core themes that are designed to equip them with essential life and social skills in preparation for adult life.  The lessons follow the framework recommended by the PSHE Association and meet the statutory DfE requirements in terms of RSE and Health Education.  Lessons are often adapted to take into account any relevant local, national or international issues that may impact our student body and also provide students with the opportunity to enrich their own personal development through discussion of real word scenarios.  

What are the aims of the curriculum?

  • We aim to prepare students for an evolving and challenging world, by equipping them with the life skills and values to enable them to be fully participating members of a fast-changing British and global society.
  • We aim to provide a thematic, spiralised approach that allows students to revisit topics across KS3 and KS4, exploring them at an age appropriate level, providing them with a comprehensive, balanced and current body of information and enabling continuous reflection on their skills, attitudes and values, to foster a sense of self-worth and confidence that enables them to flourish into the best version of themselves.
  • We aim to enable students to mature into individuals who can think critically and independently, able to make informed choices around their physical, mental, sexual, emotional and economic wellbeing, in order to develop and maintain healthy relationships and make meaningful contributions to a world where values and attitudes can be complex and at times, in direct conflict with their own.
  • We aim to follow the framework provided by the PSHE Association and meet the DfE requirements for statutory RSE and Health Education as outlined below. We aim to meet the requirements of the Citizenship curriculum (CIT) and the Gatsby Benchmarks (GB), embed the British Values (BV) and SMSC development (SMSC) and provide financial education (FE).
