lookwhaticando Posted 11 September 2009 Posted 11 September 2009 It was first called PSE, then it was PSHE, then by the time I left, it was PSHCE. It was PSE when I started, aged 11... it morphed into PSVE by the time I was 14... Personal, Social & Vocational Education. I preferred its unofficial title... WOFT. I can tell you're intrigued so I'll put you out of your misery. PSHE (taught in Key Stage 2, eg 7-11) is Personal, social and health education. And it "deals with many real life issues young people face as they grow up. It gives them the knowledge and skills needed to lead healthy and responsible lives as confident individuals and members of society." Citizenship (taught in Key Stage 3 & 4) "gets pupils working together on issues of concern. It gives them the confidence and skills they need to act with others to tackle real problems in society. They do this by researching and debating complex political, moral and social challenges facing society now and in the future." In a nutshell, like. So basically, it's just as bollocks now as it was when I was a kid. Seriously, what a load of shit these classes are becoming.
