All health and wellbeing across learning experiences and outcomes

Learning in health and wellbeing ensures that children and young people develop the knowledge and understanding, skills, capabilities and attributes which they need for mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing now and in the future.

Learning through health and wellbeing promotes confidence, independent thinking and positive attitudes and dispositions. Because of this, it is the responsibility of every teacher to contribute to learning and development in this area.

Building the Curriculum 1

Each establishment, working with partners, should take a holistic approach to promoting health and wellbeing, one that takes account of the stage of growth, development and maturity of each individual, and the social and community context.

I can expect my learning environment to support me to:

develop my self-awareness, self worth and respect for others
meet challenges, manage change and build relationships
experience personal achievement and build my resilience and confidence
understand and develop my physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing and social skills
understand how what I eat, how active I am and how decisions I make about my behaviour and relationships affect my physical and mental wellbeing
participate in a wide range of activities which promote a healthy lifestyle
understand that adults in my school community have a responsibility to look after me, listen to my concerns and involve others where necessary
learn about where to find help and resources to inform choices
assess and manage risk and understand the impact of risk-taking behaviour
reflect on my strengths and skills to help me make informed choices when planning my next steps
acknowledge diversity and understand that it is everyone's responsibility to challenge discrimination.

Mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing

Mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing are essential for successful learning.

The mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing of everyone within a learning community should be positively developed by fostering a safe, caring, supportive, purposeful environment that enables the development of relationships based on mutual respect. The four aspects of wellbeing are inextricably linked and are only separated here for practical purposes.

Planning for choices and changes

Learners need to experience opportunities which are designed not only to raise their awareness of future choices but also raise their expectations and aspirations. They develop the skills for personal planning and making decisions in the context of curriculum, learning and achievement which will prepare them for next stages in life.

Learners should experience activities which enable them to develop the skills and attributes they will need if they are to achieve and sustain positive destinations beyond school. Demands and employment patterns are changing, so it is particularly important for all young people to develop high levels of skill and also an understanding of the world of work, training and lifelong learning so that they can embrace opportunities.

Physical activity and sport

In addition to planned physical education sessions, physical activity and sport take place in the classroom, in the school, during travel such as walking and cycling, in the outdoor environment and in the community. Learning in, through and about physical activity and sport is enhanced by participating in a wide range of purposeful and enjoyable physical pursuits at break times, lunchtimes, within and beyond the place of learning.

The experiences and outcomes are intended to establish a pattern of daily physical activity which, research has shown, is most likely to lead to sustained physical activity in adult life. Experiences and outcomes should also open up opportunities for learners to participate and perform at their highest level in sport and, if interested, pursue careers in the health and leisure industries.
