PSHE - Personal Social and Health Education

 

How can we get the most out of Personal, Social and Health Education?

At the moment it is not compulsory to teach PSHE in schools. In those schools that do teach it, some do it very well and some struggle.

Do you have PSHE lessons? What do you think of them? How do you think they could be improved?

"I was under the impression politics would be taught in secondary school under Citizenship. I'm in Y8 and up to now it has not. Politics tie in with the UNCRC, so I'm confused?"

"I think PSHE should not be taught as a proper lesson once a week but more like maybe once a month or term, as when it is every week it is more difficult to get everything arranged. When this happened at my school in most PSHE lessons there was nothing to do."

"I think we should use it to do more development work such as confidence building, team working - outdoors activity. Get us out the classroom more"

"PSHE lessons were taught at my school. However poorly, as some teachers were even embarrassed to teach certain issues!"
