Citizenship: As the PSHE program explores personal issues and relationships then citizenship examines our take as citizens in a societal context including the local national and global community.
Students think about their relationship with the law, politics, the UK and the E.U. and consider global issues affecting the world today. There are opportunities for both visits outside school and speakers who come into school , e.g. from the houses of parliament. There is an active citizen element where students raise wither awareness or funds for an issue that they studied and feel strongly about. For example “save the whales” or “Cancer Research.” This project is written up as their GCSE coursework for citizenship.
PSHE explores personal issues and concerns and gives the students opportunities to explore their emotions in the face of changing pressures. The lessons stress the importance of the family in a loving relationship, and the cover puberty, sexuality transmitted infections, HIV and AIDS. Emotional well being and financial capability are extensively covered.
Each pupil is placed in a School House, the objective being to encourage “friendly competition” in games, work and other activities. There is a Merit Card system which operates in the junior years, and which allows all pupils to contribute to the House competition through their work and effort. Great care is taken to reward a pupil’s effort, thus encouraging those pupils who, although encountering some temporary difficulty in a subject, are clearly striving to do their best.
Where a boy gains a number of commendations for effort over the year he is presented with a Certificate of Good Endeavour.
