ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the challenges facing that future and presents contrasting views about the place of Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) in education practice. The school council can become active, using project work across school to promote participation and pupil voice, which is central to the ethos of any school. Summarise the main arguments that have been made above to justify the need for PSHE to be at the heart of the school curriculum. The three voices represent the views of the specialist PSHE lecturer, the former class teacher and circle time specialist, and a current PSHE coordinator who is also a learning mentor. The author doesn't see primary education as the sole province of teacher and head, but with a team of skilled professionals. He entered primary teaching in the aftermath of the Plowden Report on Primary Education. Education and the law changed social attitudes, slowly, unevenly and incompletely, but it still moved us on as a society.
