“Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” 

Aristotle

At Backwell Junior School, we believe that Personal, Social and Health Education is an important element of children’s education.  We follow the Jigsaw Programme. This programme has a strong emphasis on emotional literacy, building resilience and nurturing mental and physical health.  Each lesson also includes mindfulness which allows children to advance their emotional awareness, concentration and focus.
