PSHE & SRE
Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education/SEX & RELATIONSHIPS EDUCATION
The importance of PSHE education in, for example, preventing bullying, prejudice, substance misuse, sexual exploitation, unplanned teenage pregnancy and in contributing to positive physical, emotional and mental health and healthy relationships is increasingly recognised in the UK and throughout Brighton and Hove. Therefore, at Coombe Road Primary School, PSHE education is a central part of our curriculum as it enables our pupils to build healthy friendships and relationships and keep themselves safe now and in the future. We believe that effective PSHE education supports the teaching of behaviour for learning, and that it contributes to the wellbeing, safety and achievement of all pupils in our school.
PSHE education involves the development of knowledge and understanding skills, and provides opportunities to explore attitudes and values. It is delivered through the three core, inter-related themes of:
- Health and Wellbeing
- Relationships
- Living in the wider world
Sex and Relationships Education (SRE) and Drug, Alcohol and Tobacco Education (DATE) are delivered as part of these overlapping themes.

As a school we have adopted Brighton & Hove's programme of study for PSHE. We have mapped learning objectives from the core themes to our topics throughout the school. This curriculum map is shown below:
