PSHE
What is Jigsaw?
At Oakely School we use the PSHE Scheme Jigsaw. 'Jigsaw- the mindful approach to PSHE' is a comprehensive and completely original scheme of work for the whole Primary School from Years Reception through to Year 6. It brings together PSHE Education, emotional literacy, social skills and spiritual development in a comprehensive scheme of learning, building on key messages year on year.
SMSC (Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural) development opportunities are mapped throughout. All of these pieces of learning are brought together to form a cohesive picture, helping children to know and value who they are and understand how they relate to other people in the world.
British Values
Jigsaw contributes, as a good PSHE programme should, to the British Values agenda very significantly, both through the direct teaching of information and through the experiential learning children will enjoy.
The 5 strands of the British Values agenda have been mapped across every Puzzle (unit) and every Piece (lesson).
Links will also be made to the Jigsaw Themes and British Values through our school assemblies. We are proud of the way we promote emotional wellbeing for all our pupils through our Jigsaw programme which underpins the whole of our curriculum and approach to teaching and learning.
