An integrated programme of PSHE, Citizenship and Careers Education for keystage 3.
Are you struggling to combine PSHE, Citizenship and Careers Education, whilst still ensuring that all 3 areas are properly covered?
Is your personal development curriculum bogged down in a timetabling war between PSHE, Citizenship and Careers Education?
Are your tutors looking for a simple and easy programme to follow?
If your answer to any of these questions is Yes! then our two U3 packs might be just what you are looking for. This pack, which precedes the U3 Year 8 pack, is designed to merge the 3 subjects of PSHE, Citizenship and Careers Education in such a way that areas of overlap are merged and dealt with simultaneously and distinct areas are kept discrete. Clearly a one year teaching programme cannot cover all the learning objectives for all three subjects but, if used in conjunction with the Year 8 pack it will cover a significant number of those that apply to Keystage 3.
The U3 Y7 pack is based around 3 themes – understanding yourself, understanding your world and managing change. The first terms materials focus on understanding yourself by looking at the issues relating to strengths, interests, personality and values as well as important people in your life. The second terms materials focus on understanding your world by exploring issues relating to community and neighbourhood, young people and crime and conflict between local groups. The final term focuses on the theme of managing change and deals with handling feelings and coping with conflict, anger and changes that can impact on your life and personal development.
Containing clear and simple lesson plans and all supporting materials, the pack contains a lesson a week, every week in year 7 and is designed to be easy for staff to use and, at the same time, fun and engaging for students. It can either be used as a scheme of work for a combined PSHE, Careers and Citizenship programme (sometimes called a Personal Development Curriculum) in Year 7 or it can be dipped into and used to support and develop an existing programme. It is also designed for use by non-specialists as well as those staff already experienced in these subject areas. However, it does need staff who are happy to use participative, activity based approaches to teaching and learning.
