Every pupil receives PSHE lessons where safeguarding issues are taught through a range of topics. Through Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education, pupils develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to manage their lives, now and in the future. It helps children and young people to stay healthy and safe, while preparing them to make the most of life and work.
