PHSE
The PSHE (RSE) Curriculum at Huxlow Academy seeks to provide a curriculum accessible by all and is shaped to the context of our Academy. The curriculum is structured to enhance our students’ personal growth, emotional wellbeing, appreciation of our British Values and Citizenship, as well as promoting Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural development. At Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5 (Years 10 - 13), statutory RE is also delivered through this programme.
The Curriculum teaches the skills needed to help students navigate opportunities, responsibilities, and experiences of life. It develops the students’ knowledge and understanding of health and wellbeing, relationships, living and contributing to the wider world. It equips students to become confident and resilient learners to take a positive, active role in a diverse society. It provides students with the skills needed to stay safe within the community, as well as a safe environment within the Academy where they’re able to discuss a range of topics while enhancing SMSC development and cultural capital.
Developing from Year 7-Year 13, our spiral curriculum is age-appropriate whilst challenging, with topics developed and built upon to increase powerful knowledge.
Our PSHE spiral curriculum is embedded within Personal Development which is delivered throughout everyday life at the Academy and is underpinned by our Huxlow Values of Ambition, Pride and Respect.
