PSHE: Curriculum, Ethos and Environment PSHE as a subject in
its own right PSHE within other curriculum areas PSHE in assemblies
PSHE in the playground PSHE as a whole school approach PSHE is not
just a curriculum area - though time needs to be allocated for
this. So how do we integrate it and record progress in PSHE across
the whole school? Is PSHE only for children and young people?
