This ‘You’ aspect of this curriculum focuses on positive mental health and well-being,healthy living, positive relationships and emotional literacy. The ‘World’ element focuses on understanding the history, geography and religious elements of the world in which they find themselves and how it relates to them and to others.

There are many cross-curricular opportunities in this subject, many of which have been intentionally designed to complement other subjects notably English. For example, in Black History Month (October), learners will explore the historical, social and cultural significance of Black History and Civil Rights whilst reading poetry from Black writers.
