Personal, Social, Health, and Economic (PSHE) education is vital for fostering independent, responsible, and confident members of society. Our curriculum nurtures the holistic development of students, promoting social, emotional, and physical well-being. Students learn to navigate moral, social, and cultural issues while acquiring the skills necessary for personal safety and community contribution.
Key Stage 3
Taught through “Relating” – 1 x 55-minute period each fortnight alongside Citizenship & RSE.
Key Stage 4
Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) is mandated in all schools. At Compass, it is delivered through a combination of Relating, Science, PE, and IT curricula, with specialized external support. Parents have the right to withdraw their child from certain aspects of sex education; any concerns should be addressed with the senior leadership team.
If you have any questions about the PSHE or RSE curriculum, please contact phaverty@charterbermondsey.org.uk (Senior Leader of Pastoral). Please note that withdrawal is not permitted for relationship, health, or sex education included in the national curriculum for science.
