PSHE
Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education (PSHE)
At Park View, we are committed to supporting children’s personal development, emotional wellbeing and mental health. In 2025, we began our journey with myHappymind, and in 2026 we enhanced our provision further by adopting myHappymind Plus as the foundation of our PSHE curriculum.
The myHappymind programme helps children develop resilience, self-awareness, confidence and positive relationships through evidence-based learning centred on mental wellbeing. It supports our vision of helping every child thrive both academically and personally.
Alongside myHappymind Plus, children in Years 2, 4 and 6 also take part in the Health and Wellbeing: Ourselves, Growing and Changing units. These lessons complement the wider curriculum and ensure that pupils receive age-appropriate learning about growing up, healthy relationships and personal wellbeing.
Teaching and Recording Learning
PSHE and myHappymind lessons are taught weekly by class teachers. Sessions may follow the myHappymind programme or focus on additional PSHE themes identified within our curriculum.
Lessons are designed to be highly interactive, encouraging children to discuss, reflect, question and debate important topics in a safe and supportive environment. Through these conversations, pupils learn to understand themselves, respect others and develop the skills needed to navigate an ever-changing world.
Children record their learning in a variety of ways, including class PSHE books and individual myHappymind journals, providing opportunities for personal reflection and celebrating their progress over time.
