PSHE Education (Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education) is a planned programme of learning through which children and young people acquire the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to successfully manage their lives – now and in the future. As part of a whole-school approach, PSHE Education develops the qualities and attributes pupils need to thrive as individuals, family members and members of society. ### Our approach to PSHE At Harbury we use Jigsaw, the mindful approach to PSHE, as our comprehensive scheme of work. The programme consists of six half-term units of work, which we call 'Puzzles': Being Me in My World, Celebrating Difference, Dreams and Goals, Healthy Me, Relationships and Changing Me. Each Puzzle contains six lessons that build progressively through the school. Throughout the year, we keep you informed about our PSHE curriculum through newsletters, parental evenings and updates via the school website. Our PSHE policy, which outlines our whole-school approach, how we make adaptations to the Jigsaw content and ensure that lessons meet the needs of all pupils, is available on our school website in the policies section. We welcome your feedback and engagement with this important area of learning. ### Statutory requirements Relationships Education and Health Education became statutory in all primary schools in September 2020, as outlined in the DfE's statutory guidance for Relationships, Sex and Health Education. Updated guidance was published in 2025 and will be implemented from September 2026. These subjects are a statutory entitlement for all children. This means that whilst we highly value parental views and take these into account when planning and reviewing our curriculum, parents cannot withdraw children from Relationships or Health Education content. However, parents do retain the right to request withdrawal from specific non-statutory Sex Education lessons, which we explain further below. The Jigsaw Programme supports all of these requirements and has children’s wellbeing at its heart. ### What is Jigsaw, the mindful approach to PSHE, and how does it work? Jigsaw is a whole-school approach and embodies a positive philosophy and creative teaching and learning activities to nurture children’s development as compassionate and well-rounded human beings as well as building their capacity to learn. Jigsaw is a comprehensive and completely original PSHE Education programme (lesson plans and teaching resources) for the whole primary school from ages 3-11. Jigsaw has two main aims for all children: - To build their capacity for learning - To equip them for life Please take the time to read the additonal information we have provided for this subject.
