Reviews

As schools in England consolidate their curricula around the statutory components of PSHE, this thoughtful, professional and practical guide will support high quality teaching, and so improve the learning, and life chances of children and young people across, the country and beyond. * John Rees, PSHE Consultant, PSHE Solutions, UK * This is a timely book, designed to help those in education settings feel secure when teaching sensitive issues. Drawing from a wide-ranging pool of evidence and research, the editors have presented a collection every teacher of Primary-age children can use to support the development of positive and inclusive classroom environments. * Branwen Bingle, Head of Primary ITE, Newman University, Birmingham, UK * I would highly recommend this book. It challenges and guides schools to consider innovative ways to plan for a whole school cross-curricular approach for PSHE and RSE. Relevant and topical case studies, reflections and references are shared, giving teachers the confidence to plan and deliver this important subject effectively. * Sarah Gabbett, Lecturer in Primary PSHE, Edge Hill University, UK *
