Intent

At Stanah Primary School, we aim to provide a range of opportunities for children to develop themselves in a well-balanced way, beyond the academic and to move from childhood to adolescence with support and guidance to encourage both an awareness of others and the growth of responsible independence. Through this, we believe children can develop the confidence, talents and skills to become effective individuals in order to become lifelong learners.

The intent of the PSHE curriculum is to prepare our children for their future by encouraging the development of characteristics for life such as a love of learning, resilience, integrity, team work, critical thinking and independence. We want to prepare them for the world of work and support them in developing enterprise skills and financial awareness. As a school we promote the use of ‘Growth Mindset’ and this, alongside our British Values underpin our PSHE curriculum.

Our intent is to offer opportunities that: –

Help all children understand how to build healthy and positive relationships in an age appropriate way.

  • Raise awareness of attitudes and values, developing personal and social skills and promoting knowledge and understanding
  • Help children develop self-esteem, responsibility and the acquisition of understanding and attitudes which prepare children to develop caring, stable, healthy relationships.
  • Developing sensitivity and understanding of the needs of others, loyalty and acceptance of
