POL-ED
What is Pol-Ed?
Pol-Ed is a West Yorkshire Police education programme, written by teachers for teachers in schools across West Yorkshire. Its purpose is to keep children safe by developing their understanding of risks, consequences and the law and to develop their resilience and ability to help and support each other.
The free resources within Pol-Ed include lesson plans and schemes of work. They are used in response to situations, as part of a wider PSHE framework or for different year groups.
All of the resources focus on the West Yorkshire Police priorities and Ofsted lines of enquiry and are linked to the DfE statutory guidance and PSHE Association Programme of Study to ensure we are best meeting the needs of our young people.
We supplement our PSHE curriculum with Pol-Ed lessons – see below the lessons we deliver in each year group. Each Pol-Ed lesson is split into one of 3 areas:
- Relationships
- Keeping Safe
- Understanding the law
