PSHE

'Foundations for...life in modern Britain'

It is our intention to provide opportunities for all children to acquire the skills and knowledge they need to live healthy and happy lives, now and in the future. Through PSHE, pupils at Cuxton are prepared for life in modern Britain and develop the skills they need to succeed as individuals and as a member of society.

At The Academy of Cuxton Schools , we aim to make certain that the children build up a picture of who they are and how they fit into society as a whole, as an individual and as members of different groups. The aim is fulfilled through the following objectives:-

To know and understand what constitutes a healthy lifestyle
To develop self-esteem, confidence and increase independence
To help the children value themselves and recognise their achievements
To be positive and active members in the school and wider communities
To develop respect for others, regardless of colour, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation or preference, etc
To promote an understanding of other people and their feelings
To be aware of safety issues
To prepare children for life in modern Britain
