Learning objective
- To identify special people around them and who to go to for help
National curriculum
All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), drawing on good practice.
The PSHE Association Programme of Study advises that pupils should be taught:
- R2. to identify the people who love and care for them and what they do to help them feel cared for
- H19. to recognise when they need help with feelings; that it is important to ask for help with feelings; and how to ask for it
- L4. about the different groups they belong to

Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Might need more prompting questions to help them think of the special people they have in their life. For example: Who do you live with? Who do you play with at school? Do you have any brothers or sisters? Do you have any cousins? Who would you go to if you hurt yourself in the playground? Who would you ask if you were stuck with your work in the classroom?
Pupils working at greater depth: Should be naming a range of situations where they might need support from someone else. They should recognise lots of sources of support. They should describe how to approach someone for help.
