RSHE at Callow End CE Primary School

At Callow End CE Primary School, we aim to build a strong foundation of love and learning. We believe that RSHE education helps pupils to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes pupils need to manage life’s challenges and make the most of life’s opportunities- cultural capital. There is evidence to show that RSHE education can enable pupils to understand the importance of a healthy lifestyle both in terms of their physical and emotional wellbeing and support them in developing/building healthy friendships and relationships and keep themselves safe. An effective RSHE programme can also tackle barriers to learning, raise aspirations, and improve the life chances of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged pupils. 

We use the SCARF programme and resources to provide a curriculum which is accessible to all and that will maximise the outcomes for every child so that they know more, remember more and understand more. As a result of this they will become healthy, independent and responsible members of society who understand how they are developing personally and socially, and give them confidence to tackle many of the moral, social and cultural issues that are part of growing up. We provide our children with opportunities for them to learn about values, rights and responsibilities and appreciate what it means to be a member of a diverse society. Our children are encouraged to develop their sense of self-worth by playing a positive role in contributing to school life and the wider community.
