PSHE/RSE

Subject Leader: Mrs. Claire Dean

Porthleven Primary School aims to offer a high quality PSHE and SRE curriculum that shows our commitment to developing well-rounded, confident and responsible individuals. We aim to create a safe and supportive environment where pupils feel confident to express their thoughts and ask questions.

The school curriculum focuses on diversity, inclusion and respect for others. Through learning about these topics, we aim to promote a sense that pupils belong both within our school community and in the wider community. Pupils learn that every individual is unique and valued.

We teach pupils to make informed decisions, understand the consequences of their actions and be responsible for their own health, wellbeing and relationships. Our aim is that pupils will learn the importance of resilience, adaptability when faced with challenges and change, and a growth mindset.

Through the teaching of PSHE and SRE, pupils can better understand themselves and the world around them. By fostering a growth mindset, we help children to build self-esteem, develop coping strategies and believe in their own potential.
