This book explores personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) education and why it is crucial for young people. With a topic-by-topic guide, featuring the most contemporary themes, it shows what to cover in Key Stages 3-5 and how to cover it, including methods of assessing PSHE and providing extra-curricular opportunities. This book gives an overview of key challenges such as how to ensure that staff delivering PSHE are adequately trained and equipped to do so and how to make your PSHE curriculum inclusive, and lists recommended useful resources and reflection questions to help you develop PSHE within your own provision or setting. Its contributors are some of the country's leading experts and practitioners with years of experience in this subject specialism, and is designed to support anyone passionate about improving not only their provision of compulsory relationships, sex and health education, but also those aspects of PSHE not yet mandatory, such as financial literacy and careers education.

Explores the key issues within the planning and delivery of quality PSHE provision in secondary schools and colleges.
