We ensure that our programme has all the content and support that a busy teacher needs to deliver high quality PSHE for all the children in the classroom, whatever the topic or political climate. Jigsaw, the mindful approach to PSHE, is designed as a whole-school approach, providing a detailed scheme of learning for ages 3-16 and including all teaching materials.Alongside this, we have mapped the specific lesson planning in Jigsaw with the content that is relevant to the six sections of the PSHE Association’s Planning Framework for pupils with SEND.
