(36 HOURS IN 20 DOWNLOADS) Our one-year of PSHE for KS5 pack is the next step for students after our Complete KS4 PSHE unit and delves into further detail on the PSHE Association’s recommended topics from their secondary 2020 guidance. The pack contains 36 hours’ worth of material (many of these lessons have been designed to last two hours). This is a mix of Year 12 and Year 13 lessons. You can find the Complete 2 Years of KS5 PSHE Package here. There is a heavy focus on careers in this KS5 pack (see ten lesson careers unit included), but also on relatively new issues your students will have to tackle as young adults in an ever changing world - from extremist online subcultures and payday loans, to climate change, coercive relationships and safe clubbing and partying. This pack is tailored specifically for sixth-formers who are just taking their first steps towards being independent adults. All lesson packs are complete with detailed, well-differentiated and easy to follow PowerPoints for every lesson, accompanying differentiated worksheets, clip links with questions, plenaries, clear LOs, starters and engaging activities. None of these lessons appear in the EC Resources Complete KS3 or Complete KS4 packs, although many of these lessons are also suitable for KS4.

Drop Down Day : Careers and Enterprise

6 Resources
Drop Down Day / Off Timetable Day Pack - A set of 6 lessons to cover a Drop Down Day (6 hours) all about careers and enterprise. The Drop Down Day was put together for Year 10 originally, but all the resources are editable and well-differentiated so it could be used with any year group KS4 / KS3 with a tweak or so. The overall theme for the series of KS4 Drop Down Days was ‘Independent Living’, so this is just one in a series of six which ran throughout the year. This particular day was run just before the Year 10s went off for work experience, as we decided that this would be a great way to prepare them and convey the importance of focusing on their possible future employment opportunities. As 25% of Britains now class themselves as self-employed, two out of the six sessions also have a large focus on entrepreneurship and enterprise skills. All these individual lessons have been rated very highly by Tes users and are tried and tested in my own department.

Financial Literacy Drop Down Day

5 Resources
Drop Down Day Pack - A set of 5 lessons to cover a Drop Down Day (5 hours) all about financial literacy and ethical spending. The Drop Down Day was put together for Year 10 originally, but all the resources are editable and well-differentiated so it could be used with any year group KS4 / KS3 with a tweak or so. The overall theme for the series of KS4 Drop Down Days was ‘Independent Living’, so this is just one in a series of six which ran throughout the year. The day works especially well if you can have a key speaker from the Finance Industry (the school’s finance director will do) to kick off proceedings; just someone to emphasise how important financial literacy is and how it can lead to lucrative careers. Intertwined with the money and independent living skills gained by students throughout the day are reminders of their responsibilities as consumers to spend ethically. There is much focus on young people’s rights and responsibilities throughout the lessons as this was planned to ensure thorough coverage of Citizenship and SMSC too. All these individual lessons have been rated very highly by Tes users and are tried and tested in my own department.
