At Garston Church of England Primary, the intent of the PSCHEe curriculum is to develop skills and attributes such as resilience, self-esteem, risk-management, team-working and critical thinking in the context of five core themes: families and people who care for me, caring friendships, respectful relationships, online relationships and being safe. Integrated into these five strands is a focus on preparing children for life in the wider community in modern Britain. We also have a focus on ensuring that children grow into positive relationships with a healthy understanding of their own body and their choices.
