The Personal, Social, Health, Citizenship and Economic Education programme is delivered in a timetabled weekly one hour session throughout Years 7 - 11. It seeks to address topics and issues relevant to students’ moral and social development and to integrate cross-curricular themes such as Health, Environmental Education and Religious Studies.
 
In lessons emphasis is placed upon discussion and group activities.  However, it is recognised that teacher-led lessons have a place in such a programme. Students are encouraged to develop their viewpoints and learn to share these in a constructive manner. The use of presentations by outside agencies for whole and part year groups is an important part of the programme and the students’ curriculum is supported in relevant year groups by focus days, i.e. Sex and Relationships Education Day and Living Dangerously Day. 

Citizenship helps students become informed, thoughtful and responsible citizens who are aware of their duties and rights. It promotes spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, making them more self confident and responsible both in and beyond the classroom.  It encourages students to play a helpful part in the life of the school, the local community and the wider world.  They also find out about our economy, democratic institutions and values.
The PSHCEE curriculum is designed for each age-group leading to a coherent coverage of important issues such as personal relationships, social responsibility, health, diversity, economic well-being from Year 7 to Year 13.  Controversial and sensitive subjects are delivered with the assistance of approved published materials, selected and adapted by staff with requisite expertise.  Specialist subject teachers also cover several aspects of PSHCEE work in other areas of the curriculum and there is substantial prevocational careers input.
