At Grafton Primary School PSHE aims to help develop pupils into healthy, independent and responsible members of society. We encourage all of our pupils to play a positive role in contributing to school life and the wider community through school councils, fundraising events, supporting nominated charities and involvement in community events. Our pupils are given opportunities in PSHE and through our rights respecting work to develop: confidence, self-motivation and an understanding of their rights and responsibilities within our diverse society.

Our school uses the PSHE scheme Jigsaw, to deliver its lessons from Nursery through to Year 6.  The PSHE curriculum includes specific teaching on themes such as: Anti-Bullying and Respect, Sex and Relationships Education and Drugs, Alcohol and Tobacco Education. However, the curriculum is also delivered through assemblies, via educational visits, as well as through other subjects and activities within the curriculum.

 For more information about what pupils’ learn about each half term, please see the Jigsaw curriculum overview.
