Personal Development

Personal Development

We strive for children to develop as well-rounded, reflective and responsible citizens. Children's personal development at Shoscombe is guided by our curriculum drivers and our vision and values.

We have developed a yearly Personal Development Timetable which links our school values, British Values and SMSC to all aspects of Personal Development. This timetable is ever-changing in response to recent events, children’s interests and availability of experiences.

This overview includes details on Collective Worship, class assemblies, trips and visitors, performance opportunities, community links, e-safety, parent workshops and how we support children’s mental health and well-being.

We provide opportunities for children to perform, for children to lead and for children to reflect. We encourage children to think beyond themselves and to support local, national and global charities.

As you move through our website, we hope you will see how children’s Personal Development, health and wellbeing is woven through all we do.
