PSHE teaching, in a supportive atmosphere, helps students to develop their values and beliefs and to have these challenged.

4. Our PSHE department’s strength is its specialist team who all share a commitment to all aspects of PSHE. We aim to employ a variety of teaching methods and organisational strategies to match the curricular objectives and meet the needs of the students. Role- play is used to enable students to work cooperatively, to recognise and value the views of others and to negotiate.
