Overview
Topics are organised into four strands to offer a coherent, progressive PSHE course for Years 7 to 9. Each unit can be taught on its own, at any point during Key Stage 3 that the school thinks is appropriate. In Student Book 2: Personal wellbeing and mental health units focus on increasing self-awareness, building confidence and learning to manage feelings. Relationships and sex education units offer guidance on healthy relationships, contraception and safer sex, consent, and how to protect yourself online. Physical health and wellbeing units deal with the importance of taking care of your body, and understanding the risks of alcohol, drug-taking and addiction. Social education units look outwards to consider attitudes to others and Citizenship topics such as voting, human rights and democracy. The content has been trialled by a team of PSHE teachers and RSE experts. The series is accompanied by a detailed teacher guide.
