Health and Social Education is an integrated program from Grades 6 to 12 that is delivered
via one period per week to all students. The program is taught within each homeroom group.
This is to encourage a special relationship amongst students and homeroom advisors that
forms part of the overall care and concern for our students. The underlying aims of the program set out in a series of books are to encourage students to:
• develop mutual respect and support
• think about issues and make informed opinions
• be aware of and care for others and for the environment
• talk about feelings and be sensitive to the feelings of others
• be constructively critical and questioning
• be responsible for their behavior and learning
• think about, assess and develop their potential
The program is based on a commitment to equal opportunities for all students, respect for
cultural diversity and to prepare students for life in a multi-cultural society. It is structured so
as to compliment our IB Physical Education program.
The program develops four major themes in a coherent objectives-based spiral curriculum:
• personal relationships
• health and safety
• social awareness
• personal management
