Note: The information in this resource can also be accessed online via the RSE & PSHE Curriculum portal.
This document has been updated to reflect the 2026/27 RSE and PSHE curriculum.
Why is this document useful?
Most of PSHE education is now statutory and primary schools must also provide Relationships education. This is aimed at equipping students with knowledge and skills for a healthy life in modern Britain. It also helps them meet academic goals and become responsible members of society.
Ofsted now places greater emphasis on PSHE education, and schools must demonstrate that they meet statutory requirements. To support schools with this, the PSHE Association‘s Programme of study offers a starting point for the implementation of a broad PSHE curriculum.
This document maps the learning objectives from the PSHE Association’s core themes: Health and wellbeing; Relationships; and Living in the wider world, against Kapow Primary’s RSE & PSHE scheme, to show which lessons (KS1 and KS2) provide coverage of each objective.
