Landywood Primary School

Life Education

Subject Lead - Mrs Richards

At Landywood Primary School, we encourage children to be independent indviduals who can build positive relationships. Our Life Ed Curriculum gives all children the chance to express themselves and relate to their own personal experiences. Life Ed is taught each week as a direct lesson, but the Life Ed curriculum is covered in all aspects of school.

We provide the children with opportunities to speak, listen and engage in every lesson. Lessons are planned in six weekly cycles, giving the children the opportunity to research, debate and reflect on each topic. The lessons are flexible to cover any current issues that may arise. 

By giving the children the opportunity to make and respond to their own choices, we are helping them to become successful, tolerant adults.
