Developing Subject Knowledge, Skills and Understanding for Teaching and Learning in PSHE

Aims

To develop the subject knowledge, skills and understanding for high quality PSHE teaching and learning in the primary classroom.

Overview

This three-part programme supports primary practitioners to reflect on and improve their teaching of PSHE. Each session lasts half a day.

Session 1 looks at what we choose to teach (live via Zoom)

• Creating a strong rationale to engage children in each area of PSHE
• Ensuring you have a rich progression in skills and knowledge
• What should we include in the ‘perfect’ PSHE lesson?

Session 2 is an on-demand recording to support reflection and activities. It will explore five ideas for great PSHE teaching, including:

• How to teach consent even before you get to the S of SRE
• Outstanding teaching of economics at primary school
• Expanding and enriching vocabulary in PSHE - and applying it across the curriculum

Session 3 explores how we teach PSHE, and how we establish and evidence our impact (live via Zoom)

• Is there a ‘Greater Depth’ in PSHE, and how might we teach it?
• Assessment approaches that don’t divert focus and energy from the real substance of learning
• How do we understand ‘cultural capital’ in PSHE?

No significant learning occurs without a significant relationship
