Jigsaw, the mindful approach to health and well-being, for ages 5 -16, is a comprehensive teaching programme for Personal, Social and Health Education. It covers all aspects of health and well-being in a progressive scheme of work, including all the DfE statutory requirements for Relationships Education. In a lesson a week for every year group, learning themes are returned to and developed each year through 6 half-termly units called Puzzles. The whole school works on the same Puzzle at the same time, each year group at its own level, aiding differentiation, creating a spiral curriculum and enabling (for ages 5-11) for each Puzzle to be launched with a whole-school assembly.

The Puzzles are sequential starting with Being Me in My World at the beginning of the school year and progressing through to the end of the Summer term: • Being Me in My World • Celebrating Difference • Dreams and Goals • Healthy Me • Relationships • Changing Me.

We believe that emotional and mental health are fundamental to learning, relationships and life. A sense of identity, the feeling of belonging, coupled with inner strength, calm and resilience are essential for success. Jigsaw, the mindful approach to PSHE, is underpinned by mindfulness philosophy. Mindfulness practice in every lesson empowers young people to be aware of their thoughts and feelings as they arise, consciously making decisions about the ensuing actions and responses, thus enabling them to grow in self-regulation and support their own well-being to become confident and aspiring adults of the future, ready to challenge anything which may prevent them from achieving.
