PSHE at Livingstone
PSHE is taught once a week and, since September 2026, it follows a spiral curriculum model, where key concepts are revisited and deepened over time, ensuring learning is age-appropriate, meaningful and secure. Lessons across Years 1 to 6 are organised into nine key areas: My healthy self, Connecting with others, The online world, Staying safe, Health protection, Growing up, Citizenship, Sex education and First aid.
In Nursery and Reception, PSHE is not taught as a separate subject. Instead, it is embedded throughout daily routines, play experiences, stories, circle times, discussions and interactions with adults. Personal, Social and Emotional Development (PSED) is one of the three Prime Areas of Learning and Development in the EYFS.
Curriculum Overview
School Council
Each year our School council enjoy running charity events to help the local and global communities.The children meet at the beginning of the school year and decide which charities they would like to support. They ask their class mates for ideas of fundraising activities that they could do.
The children have organised events such as a cinema night and an enterprise event to raise money for a range of charities chosen by the pupils.
The School council is made up of two members of each class voted for by their classmates on our polling day. They play an important role in school life. They represent the views of the pupils in weekly meetings and put their ideas for change forward to the head teacher.
This year our chair of governors presented the children with their official school council badges.
