INTRODUCTION

This website uses pupils' work and case study materials to show what the PSHE non-statutory guidance looks like in practice.

The examples of pupils' work show:

• how the frameworks for PSHE at key stages 1 to 4 translate into real curriculum activities
• examples of work at different ages and key stages
• varying standards of work at different ages and key stages.

They include:

• individual pupil responses to tasks and questions
• accounts of open-ended investigations and projects.

The examples take various forms, including:

• poems
• continuous writing
• reports
• booklets
• information text.

For each piece of work there are:

Activity objectives: these set out the purpose and the teaching and learning objectives of the work.

Activity description: this provides details of what the teacher and pupils actually did. It also describes the context, the level of support provided and the extent to which the activity was structured.

Commentary: this explains why the piece of work

• is a good example of PSHE in practice
• shows evidence of performance in relation to the strands of the PSHE frameworks
• illustrates achievement in relation to the strands of the PSHE frameworks.

The examples of pupils' work on this site are only representative. They cannot reflect the extent of the knowledge that teachers and others could build up about each individual pupil. The examples come from a range of different schools, whose PSHE programmes will make different demands on pupils.
