Woodchurch CE Primary School

Compassion Hope Forgiveness Thankfulness Love

Language

PSHE

‘Everyone will be treated with dignity as all people are made in the image of God and loved equally by God. All pupils have a right to an education which enables them to flourish and is set in a learning community where differences of lifestyle and opinion (within that which is permissible under UK law) are treated with dignity and respect; bullying of all kinds is eliminated; and where they are free to be themselves and fulfil their potential without fear.’

(The Church of England Education Office, 2019)

 

All the activities in Woodchurch CEP School are carried out in the Christian context and promote the school values of Compassion, Hope, Forgiveness, Thankfulness and Love. At Woodchurch, our school vision, values, ethos and Christian faith promote PSHE, SMSC and FBV on a daily basis, in our school and wider community. PSHE is a school priority and considered paramount to equip pupils with the tools that will enable them to flourish academically, emotionally and spiritually.

 

Woodchurch CEP School prides itself in providing equal opportunities for all members of its family regardless of disability, religion, sexual orientation, culture, gender, ethnic origin, colour or age. All pupils have access to the PSHE curriculum, and the right to a learning environment which dispels ignorance, prejudice or stereotyping.

 

At Woodchurch CEP School, we are committed to the development of children’s social, emotional skills, children’s self-esteem, their physical and mental health and well-being. We are committed to developing the children’s responsibilities towards themselves, others in school, the local and global community. This commitment is embodied in the school’s mission statement and values; it contributes to the positive ethos of the school and guides the systems, policies and ‘day-to-day’ running of the school. PSHE (National Curriculum) and PSED (Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum) are recognised as an important aspect of the curriculum, where teaching and learning focuses on the development of these skills and responsibilities and develop the knowledge and understanding to make informed choices.
