The intent (what we intend to teach) of the PSHE curriculum can be seen in the DHCPS PSHE and RSE Policy and the Long Term plan and supported by the Jigsaws curriculum overview, Jigsaws vocabulary progression document and overview of Jigsaws and the PSHE association Programmes of Study which is aligned to the aims and objectives of the National Curriculum. This should be read alongside our whole school curriculum policy which details our whole school curriculum offer, how we are committed to and seek to achieve a broad and balanced, knowledge rich curriculum and why we teach using the methods that we use which are summarised in Rosenshine's 'Principles of effective instruction.'

We use the Jigsaw schemes of work and programmes to support our teaching and learning in PSHE.

The implementation of this (how we intend to teach it) is outlined in the PSHE subject on a page.  This should be read alongside our whole school educational strategic overview which details our whole school curriculum design and core curriculum aims.  The subject specific 'subject on a page' documents  show how each subject prioritises each of the curriculum aims and details a route map of how each subject is effectively designed and crafted to seek to achieve these aims. 

We monitor the impact of the PSHE curriculum through various means including: evidence of work, pupil conferences, PSHE end of unit assessments and lesson observations.  These are analysed on a termly basis and a 'strategic evaluation and development plan' for PSHE produced which contributes to the whole school ongoing continuous improvement cycle and whole school self-evaluation.
