PSHE
At the Skegness Academy Sixth Form, we promote personal wellbeing and development through a comprehensive Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) Education Programme, along with Relationship and Sex Education (RSE) and Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural (SMSC) programme in the Sixth Form.
It is designed to equip our students with the skills and knowledge they need to address the complex moral, social, and health issues they may face throughout their lives and grow into informed and responsible members of society.
There are many topics that are covered to support the development of Sixth Form students. Here are some of the topics we cover:
- Healthy Relationships & Friendships
- Sex and intimacy
- Consent
- Pornography v relationships
- Safe sex
- Knife crime
- Media literacy
- Body Image
- Household budgets
- Masculinity and Men
- International Day of Peace
- World Religion Day
- Passover
- Human rights
We teach the Personal, Social, Health and Economic education programme, Relationship and Sex Education and Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural programme during tutor time and assemblies. All PSHE teaching takes place in a safe learning environment and is underpinned by our school values. All our Sixth Form students benefit from a range of speakers and guests to help inform and inspire them to achieve their potential. There is flexibility in our schedule to allow us as a school to respond appropriately to any local/national/global events that may occur. In addition, flexibility is essential in ensuring our PSHE programme is tailored to suit the needs of our learners within the context of our school community.
