At Lindale, we use the Kapow scheme of work. 

The scheme aims to give children the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that they need to
effectively navigate the complexities of life in the 21st Century. The curriculum covers
key areas which will support children to make informed choices now and in the future
around their health, safety, wellbeing, relationships, and financial matters and will
support them in becoming confident individuals and active members of society.
Kapow Primary’s RSE/PSHE scheme of work covers the Relationships and Health
Education statutory guidance (as set out by the Department for Education), including
the non-statutory sex education.
The scheme covers wider PSHE learning, in line with the requirement of the National
curriculum (2014) that schools ‘should make provision for personal, social, health and
economic education (PSHE).’ Children’s learning through this scheme would
significantly contribute to their personal development as set out in the Ofsted
Inspection Framework and promotes the four fundamental British values which reflect
life in modern Britain: democracy; rule of law; respect and tolerance and individual
liberty.
The Kapow Primary scheme does not specifically cover gender identity, although
identity is a theme that runs through all year groups and units more generally. Gender
identity does not form part of the National curriculum.
Quality PSHE and RSE teaching is an important element in helping schools to carry out
their duty of care with regards to safeguarding. The DfE’s statutory ‘Keeping Children
Safe in Education (Sep 2020)’ guidance states that ‘Governing bodies and proprietors
should ensure that children are taught about safeguarding, including online safety.
In response to the child-on-child abuse updates to Section 5 of Keeping Children Safe in
Education (DfE, 2022), our curriculum introduces and revisits ideas of personal
boundaries, consent and communicating our boundaries with others. This prepares
pupils for the challenges and responsibilities they will face in the future.

We also use Picture News in school.

Picture News finds the positives in current affairs by turning world events into learning opportunities. 

Strengthen home-school links and engage the wider community in current affairs.

British Values

Each week we connect to a British Value. Show your pupils these values in action.  The British government requires all schools in England to promote British Values to children, to prepare them for life in modern Britain. The four British Values are: democracy, rule of law, respect and tolerance and individual liberty.   By exploring and debating topical issues, pupils will also exercise British Values by learning to respect and tolerate the views of people around them.

Protected Characteristics

Each news resource meaningfully connects to at least one characteristic.

UN Rights of the Child
