PSHE

At Chandos we:

• Create successful, effective learners who understand and value scholarship and education

• Create competent, critical thinkers who can challenge and develop ideas

• Create effective communicators of our share beliefs, values and learning

• Create tolerant and respectful global citizens who have an understanding and knowledge of our local, national and global communities

At Chandos, we follow the Birmingham SACRE programme of study for the teaching of RE, which is a whole school approach covering the comprehensive and broad knowledge and skills that the children are required to learn from the National Curriculum.

The scheme of learning we use is designed specifically for schools with a similar pupil population to ours, meaning the content is useful and relevant.

At Chandos, we aim to equip our children for their futures in a world that is constantly changing and adapting. Through their RE lessons, children will develop their understanding of the world that we live in and confidently ask questions about things they do not understand. Children will be given the opportunity for discussion and debate where they will be encouraged to take on different responsibilities and to kindly challenge ideas they do not agree with, giving reasons for this.

Ultimately, we want to have given our children the skills that they need to make a difference in the world.

By talking to children, it will be evident that this is the case.
