Life Skills

—

Life Skills (PSHEE) at Knightsbridge School is taught in a spiral curriculum across KS2 and KS3 by specialist trained teachers. The curriculum is divided into three main areas of exploration: Living in the Wider World, Health and Well-being and Relationships. Our RSE provision is provided through Life Skills lessons and in collaboration with other key areas of the curriculum. Our careers programme is also based in Life Skills, with students at KS3 encouraged to identify their personal strengths and values, supporting them in setting educational and career based targets. Students are also encouraged to identify entrepreneurial role models from a diverse range of backgrounds. This is in preparation for work experience placements, which students undertake in year 10. Mental Health Education is prioritised throughout our Life Skills curriculum as students are taught emotional intelligence and emotional regulation through the use of RULER. Mindfulness and meditation are encouraged through weekly yoga and well-being sessions.
