RSHE stands for relationships, sex and health education. Teaching this in a developmentally appropriate way enables our children to become independent, confident, healthy and responsible members of society, as well as developing the 'whole child' intellectually, morally, socially and spiritually.
At Milstead, we use a scheme called 'Jigsaw' to deliver our lessons. Its aim is to build character, emotional heath and resilience in children, and its core principle is the importance of loving and accepting ourselves as well as loving and responding well to others. The scheme is split into 6 units which focus on different aspects of the curriculum:
Jigsaw is sequential, the six puzzles (units) starting with 'Being Me in My World' (BM) at the beginning of the school year and working through to the end of the year.
BM (Being Me in My World)
'Who am I and how do I fit?'

Aspirations, how to achieve goals and understanding the emotions that go with this
