The Cambridgeshire PSHE Service has been producing high quality resources, which are responsive to the needs of schools, for over 20 years. These resources are highly regarded locally, nationally and internationally. For more information see our team.  

Early Years and Foundation Stage

We offer resources to support with development of Personal, Social and Emotional Development in the EYFS.

We have Units of Work which can be tailored to the needs of your group and which may be purchased as an EYFS Themeset. These units may be used in a variety of EYFS settings. A reception teacher may prefer to investigate the purchase of the Cambridgeshire Primary Personal Development Programme for their school. The PPDP includes all the resources for use with EYFS.

Key Stage 1 and 2

Primary Schools have a duty to promote wellbeing alongside academic achievement. Where the relationships between wellbeing and learning are recognised and developed, children thrive. PSHE makes an invaluable contribution to spiritual, moral, cultural and social development as well as enhancing personal development and behaviour. Ofsted have found a link between high achieving schools and the provision of high quality PSHE.

Cambridgeshire PSHE Service provides primary schools with a range of resources and services to enable each school to provide a complete PSHE programme and to develop the wellbeing of children throughout the school environment.

We offer resources to support the development of all themes often included under the broad heading of PSHE. These resources offer both high quality materials for curriculum delivery and whole school review and development tools.

Our flagship resource for this sector is the Cambridgeshire Primary Personal Development Programme. We also offer individual Areas of Work, Promoting Healthy Friendships, Conflict Resolution and Peer Mediation and Yes We Can Raccoon Circles in the Primary School  (a resource to enable teachers to develop team building and  problem solving).

For Primaries who are reviewing their response to the Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) guidance, please consider our Safer Spaces Action Toolkit. 

Key Stage 3 and 4

Secondary schools have a range of different methods of delivery of PSHE, therefore we have arrange of different resources to meet those needs and to enable schools to devise relevant and responsive programmes which meet the needs of young people in an ever changing society. At the centre of our secondary provision are progressive frameworks which outline step by step development covering the statutory requirements of RSE and Health Education.
