Personal, Social and Emotional Development Development

RE sits firmly in PSED within the EYFS framework. This enables children to develop a positive sense of themselves and others and to learn how to form positive and respectful relationships. Children begin to understand and value the differences between individuals and groups within their immediate community. They will have the opportunity to develop their emerging moral and cultural awareness.
