PSHE
Statement of Intent
At Killinghall, we aim to give children access to critical information about themselves and others in a safe and controlled environment. Children are given the opportunity to learn about topics and to use this knowledge effectively. We encourage respect and the understanding of universal rights for everybody. We aim to promote children’s knowledge, emotional resilience and self-esteem and help them to form positive relationships. It is important that all children understand the importance of wellbeing and how to keep themselves and those around them safe.
