Are You Ready for the New Ofsted Expectations?

Embedding British Values and Protected Characteristics in Your School

A One-Day Training for Senior Leaders and PSHE Leads

With new Ofsted inspection guidance, schools must show how they are embedding British Values and the nine Protected Characteristics across the whole curriculum and school culture.

“No matter what type of school they attend, it is important that all children gain an understanding of the world they are growing up in, and learn how to live alongside, and show respect for, a diverse range of people.” – Ofsted, 2025

This practical, high-impact training will help you turn expectations into action and ensure your school is confident, compliant, and inspection-ready.

In This Interactive Day, You Will:

• Clarify where British Values and Protected Characteristics fit within your Personal Development and RSHE curriculum
• Understand what Ofsted are looking for under the new inspection guidance
• Discover effective, high-quality resources to support delivery
• Network and share best practice with colleagues from other schools
• Create your own Action Plan to strengthen provision and evidence impact

Perfect for Senior Leaders and PSHE Leads to attend together if possible, ensuring joined-up thinking and a robust whole-school approach. Please bring a laptop.

Empower your team. Strengthen your provision.

Be ready to show Ofsted how your school lives its values.

This workshop is offered to ALL staff in every school/college in Gloucestershire. The training compliments other training packages available through GHLL including:

• MHFA (Mental Health First Aid England Training)
• Understanding Self Harm
• Equalities and Transgender Awareness in Schools

The training will enable the development of listening skills and explore good practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share what works well and hear examples from other settings, before considering how to establish a structure within their own setting to ensure there is a TEAA for their pupils. They will also have their own skills reaffirmed by:

• Gaining a greater understanding of their own mental health and the importance of self-care.
• Feeling more supported in their role as a Trusted Emotionally Available Adult.
• Having the opportunity to practise empathetic responses and listening skills

At the end of the training each setting will receive a hard copy of GHLL's TEAA resource. Attendees will also have full access to the electronic copies upon completing the training.

Please note, the resources are currently designed for use with KS1 and KS2 children, although some can be adapted for use with KS3 pupils. We hope to develop more secondary resources later in the year.

9.30 – 12.15pm Part One

Led by GHLL primary teachers, this morning session will dive into the new DfE RSHE Statutory Guidance 2025 for Primary Schools. Delegates will explore the changes made to the previous document and look at how to ensure their R(S)HE curriculum meets the DfE requirements, whilst also tailoring it to their setting and the needs of their pupils. Whether a commercial package is used to deliver the R(S)HE curriculum or freely available resources are used, this session will help to support schools in providing a spiral, responsive, progressive curriculum, bespoke to their setting.

This training session will cover:
· New statutory requirements for R(S)HE (to be implemented by Sept 2026) including policies and curriculum content
· Guidance for auditing and reviewing provision in school
· Suggestions for parent and pupil consultation
· Understanding of the principles of good R(S)HE teaching
· Suggestions for dealing with awkward questions, setting ground rules and managing parental concerns
· Signposting to quality-marked free resources to support the curriculum

1pm – 3.30pm Part Two

During this afternoon workshop session, we will dive into the various GHLL primary resources, all of which have been developed by practising teachers to support pupils in their physical and emotional development. The GHLL Lead Teachers can advise on how to build the resources into your school’s current PSHE curriculum, and share ways in which they have been implemented in other schools and the outcomes they have provided.

During the session you will have the opportunity to discuss methods to measure the impact of your PSHE teaching, and ways in which the children’s learning and understanding can be recorded and assessed.

Some of the resources explored in this session will include:

• Counting Sleep
• Make Me a Superhero
• Peer Mediation
• Understanding Dementia
• Keeping Myself Safe
• Focused for Learning

The last part of the session allows time for delegates to view other resources freely available to schools and the chance to share ways in which they can be mapped into a school’s provision.

Gloucestershire Healthy Living and Learning have been offered a unique opportunity to invite secondary teachers and lecturers to visit Gloucester Crown Court whilst it is in session. This will provide educational professionals with a unique insight into the English Criminal Justice system, support and inform the teaching of The Law, PSHE and Citizenship. As you know our ‘Getting Court’ scheme has been offering this opportunity for students for many years. Judge Lawrie is very keen to offer teachers the same chance! There will be an opportunity for teachers to ask questions of Judge Lawrie during the morning.

Message to all teachers from Judge Lawrie:

“Getting Court has now been running for 10 years. Different schools attend Gloucester Crown Court each month and learn about the rule of law and how the Criminal Justice System works. They watch real cases and see real defendants being sentenced. Sometimes they observe a jury returning with a verdict.

What has become very clear is that teachers who themselves attend know very little about how the Criminal Justice System works and those who have attended have found the morning both interesting and rewarding. I am passionate about explaining to all-comers how the system works, how it affects everyday life, its strengths and weaknesses and the type of people who find themselves in the dock.

Please come along to Court. I think you will find it personally interesting, and it will give you information to help keep young people informed about our judicial system”.

Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come first-served basis, initially at one place per school/college. If you would like to attend this event at Gloucester Crown Court then please select 'Book Now' and complete the form. 

This MHFA course will teach you how to:

• Spot the early signs of a mental health problem in young people
• Feel confident helping a young person experiencing a problem
