Year 2 PSHE Lesson Plans

4 free Year 2 PSHE lesson plans for KS1. Each includes learning objectives, key vocabulary, a timed lesson structure and common misconceptions, and downloads as an editable Word document.

Year 2 PSHE deepens the personal and social literacy pupils began building in Year 1. Pupils now examine their feelings and mental health with greater nuance, learning specific strategies for managing difficult emotions and understanding that mental health is just as important as physical health. They also begin to develop a more critical awareness of the world around them, exploring what makes relationships positive and safe, and encountering introductory ideas about money and financial wellbeing.
