- Encourage children to be curious about the things they see and experience and explore the world around them.
- Provide opportunities where our children can apply key skills to enhance their understanding of PSE concepts, positive attitudes and values.
- Use and understand appropriate social, emotional and behavioural vocabulary to communicate ideas; enabling pupils to manage different emotions and develop strategies to resolve conflict.

- Develop learners’ self-esteem and a sense of personal responsibility and awareness of their rights.
