This powerpoint has been used in a pupil referral unit for PHSE. Rather than just delivery for delivery sakes, this lesson opens up further discussion in groups.

Using the AQA Unit Award Scheme in our pupil referral unit we haver been able to work with students with a propensity for creative leisure past-times. The PREVENT scheme is 4 bespoke Units and covers thinking skills, decision making and understanding impacts.

This resource is accompanied by an AQA Unit. It is utilised in an exclusion unit on day 6 where we aim to turn students around as an authority and prepare them for another school. It is useful also to be used as a behaviour tool with students who are prone to fixed term exclusions. The work includes a certain amount of self-reflection and research and is very useful to drive one to one sessions.

This lesson was designed for year 10/11 students who were studying GCSE sport. The lesson has been adapted for assembly for year 10 boys who were at risk of being led into steroid use as they were members of local gymnasiums.

St Helens, my current place of work has a plethora of open water areas. This AQA Unit Award is used to inform students of the risks posed by the open water areas. I fell that this presentation can be used by any key stage and can be used to enforce practical swimming lessons.

In a pupil referral unit, for new students whom are mainly male we start with a “good conversation” pro forma to break the ice. We then incorporate RESPECT into one to one sessions, and in group sessions. We have found that the students engage well in this activity and are surprised by how much they pay attention and utilise dictionaries and online resources for their research. Staff appreciate the opportunity to “self-disclose!”
