Enabling our pupils to become responsible, respectful, safe and healthy members of modern
British society empowered to make a difference to the world they live in.

At Templars Academy, our PSHE (Personal, Social, Health and Economic) education is delivered through the SCARF scheme, which supports children in developing the knowledge, skills, and attitudes they need to thrive personally and socially. Our curriculum promotes well-being, resilience, and positive relationships, preparing children for life in modern Britain.

Our curriculum:

• Covers key areas including health and well-being, relationships, living in the wider world, and economic understanding.
• Develops children's emotional literacy and social skills, helping them to manage feelings, resolve conflicts, and build respectful relationships.
• Promotes physical and mental health awareness, including understanding healthy lifestyles, safety, and managing risks.
• Encourages responsible decision-making and an understanding of rights, responsibilities, and diversity.
• Supports children to develop self-confidence, empathy, and respect for others.
• Provides a safe and supportive environment for discussing sensitive and challenging issues.
• Is carefully sequenced to build knowledge and skills progressively across all year groups.
• Aligns with statutory requirements and the latest guidance on safeguarding and well-being.

We are committed to delivering a high-quality PSHE education that nurtures the whole child, fostering their personal development and preparing them for future challenges and opportunities.
