PSHE

Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education

The Department for Education states: ‘The evidence shows that personal, social, health and economic (PSHE)

education can improve the physical and psychosocial well-being of pupils. A virtuous cycle can be achieved, whereby

pupils with better health and well-being can achieve better academically, which in turn leads to greater success’.

Engaging and Enriching Experiences

In addition to regular lessons, students benefit from dedicated sessions with expert external speakers. These enriching experiences provide real-world insights and personal stories, making the PSHE curriculum more relatable and impactful.

Our curriculum covers crucial areas such as physical health, mental health, and relationship health. By encouraging critical thinking, we help students understand the factors that shape their opinions, fostering a deeper self-awareness.

At Aldenham, our PSHE programme is more than just an educational requirement; it’s a journey. We are committed to equipping our students with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to thrive in an ever-changing world.
