R.S.H.E
Mission Statement
Rooted in gospel values St Cecilia’s Catholic School Community lives together, learns together, loves together.
Vision Statement
At St Cecilia’s Catholic Junior School we are committed, through challenging and stimulating RSHE lessons, to allowing our children to realise their potential and push their limitations; equipping them for their future and creating understanding citizens of the world. RSHE is a vital aspect of this, and as such, is interweaved through all of our curriculum subjects and taught discretely. Our carefully planned RSHE curriculum helps children to understand themselves and the world around them, learning how to be responsible and understanding citizens and keep themselves and other safe. We enable our pupils to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes whilst working both independently and collaboratively to become successful, confident and resilient members of society so that they can thrive, now and in the future.

RSHE Scheme of Work
We follow the You, Me and PSHE scheme of work, which is Quality Assured by the PSHE Association and the Journey in Love Scheme for Sex Education, which is the recommended programme for Catholic Schools. The content of RSHE is divided into seven strands:
- Relationships and Sex education (R.S.E) (taught through Journey in Love)
- Drug, alcohol and tobacco education (DATE)
- Keeping safe and managing risk
- Mental health and emotional wellbeing
- Physical health and wellbeing
- Careers, financial capability & economic wellbeing
- Identity, society and equality
Where natural links allow, PSHE is also taught through other subjects, such as PE, History and English. This is to increase the our children's understanding and to develop a "real life" approach to the development of the "whole child".
RSHE is taught by class teachers, through discreet lessons, circle time and through other subjects. At some point in the year, each class will also receive RSHE sessions from Miss Quigley, who will also deliver curriculum content. Sometimes, we are lucky enough to have outside speakers in our school assemblies to talk to us about issues which they wish to raise awareness of. This wide range of RSHE opportunities helps our children to develop into well-rounded, responsible individuals.

Anti Bullying Week 2019
Over the last two week, we have been promoting the key messages of this year's anti-bullying event 'Change Starts With Us 2019' . The children have heard about the importance of being kind. They have taken part in drama workshops with Helen O'Grady Drama School and wore blue on Friday 15th November. Further work in class during PSHE lessons reinforced the key messages:
- Change starts with us
- Change starts here
- Change starts now
- Be Kind
The School Council have refreshed the school's Anti Bullying Charter, which agrees 6 main promises displyed in all classrooms.
