Citizenship/PSHE/Careers

Welcome to the Barking Abbey ‘C PSHE C’ page. From September 2004 ‘C PSHE C’ will be taught as a discrete subject for one lesson per week. The majority of lessons will be taught by the Pastoral Co-ordinators, namely:

• Mr Duddridge and Miss Burrows (Year 8)

• Mr Moloney and Miss Mallick (Year 9)

• Mrs Thorogood and Mrs Hargreaves (Year 10)

• Ms Beard and Mr Lewis (Year 11)

They will be assisted by Mr Smith, Mr Edwards and the school careers co-ordinator, Mrs Glendinning.

The syllabus for this new course will encapsulate all the requirements for Citizenship, PSHE and Careers Education.

It is split into a 6-week modular course and there will be a report at the end of each term and a written examination at the end of the year.

Years 10/11
• The Be Real Game

The Be Real Game is a Careers Education and Citizenship Programme that enables students, through a series of role-playing activities and experimental learning, to discover the realities of the Adult World within the safe environment of the classroom. Each of the games, focussed on different age groups, help young people to realise the effect that choices and decisions they make now can have on their quality of life as adults. Within the game we will incorporate the strands of relevant Personal, Social and Health Education along with issues raised in Religious Studies.

The Be Real Game is based on the ‘High Five’ foundational principles that are used in Citizenship, PSHE, RE and Careers. The ‘High Five’ are:

• Change is Constant
• Learning is Ongoing
• Focus on the Journey
• Follow your heart
• Access your Allies

At the end of the Be Real Game all students will receive a Certificate of Completion and then using all the knowledge gained be able to sit the AQA Level 1 / 2 World of Work qualification.

We will be hoping to be able to offer a GCSE in Citizenship/PSHE in 2005/06 to all students who have completed the Be Real Game course.
