Tylers Green First School
PSHE
Our School uses Jigsaw, an approach that is consistent from Reception to Year 2.
PSHE
The PSHE policy sets out in detail our approach to PSHE and can be found on our website. There is a strong link to the school values, and British values in our approach to PSHE.
PSHE is taught weekly as a subject, but also runs as a thread through the approach to our other curriculum areas. Assemblies, celebration of achievements, our safeguarding policy and our school behaviour policy all reflect our approach to PSHE.
Each “puzzle” piece explores a different theme, as set out below:
