What is Personal Development?
Our curriculum has a clear purpose and is focused around our academy ethos and motto of ‘to inspire to achieve’ and our agreed Aims and Principles. Our intention when delivering Personal Development is to widen the understanding of learning beyond the classroom to prepare our children to be successful adults upon leaving Reedswood.
Our Personal development curriculum reflects the academy’s vision and values. At the core of this is to demonstrate and teach the skills, knowledge and understanding that pupils need to lead confident, healthy lives and to become informed, active, and responsible citizens.
