PHSE at BCS

PHSE Co-ordinator Dr S Pearce

PHSE is considered to include all aspects of school life, from day to day relationships in the tutor group, through assemblies, sport, lessons and lectures to field trips, camps and activities. We aim to promote self esteem and confidence which we believe will lead to the development of respect for self and others.

Weekly PHSE

Lessons in Years 7 & 8 are taught by the form tutor with the use of outside speakers and other staff members where appropriate. In Year 9 and above formal PHSE is usually delivered by the PHSE co-ordinator or by an outside specialist.

The school aims to provide a caring, friendly and safe environment for all students so that they can learn in a relaxed and secure manner. A peer support scheme is run by Years 12 and 13, providing sympathetic understanding and support for anyone who feels they may need it.
