Year 5 Unit 4 - Aspiration and Growth (Wider World)

Our progressive curriculum builds sequentially year-on-year, culminating in the Year 5 Aspiration and Growth unit, which deepens students’ understanding of personal development, career aspirations, and growth. Students will explore key concepts such as setting personal goals, understanding the link between manners, etiquette, and success, growing independence and responsibility, and reflecting on career choices that match their skills. They will also study the Equality Act, gender stereotypes, and the gender pay gap, linking these concepts to British values and workplace dynamics. 

Each lesson is fully editable and compliant with DfE and PSHE Association guidelines, ensuring ease of integration into your chosen curriculum. This bundle offers flexibility for educators, providing the option to select individual lessons or mini-units rather than committing to a full scheme.
