Abstract: As the UK government prepares to make personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) education compulsory, a recent trial shows how these subjects can be taught successfully. Grace Lordan and Alistair McGuire evaluate the effects of Healthy Minds - a new four-year curriculum for secondary schools - on physical health, emotional health and behaviour. Overall, the effects of this new PSHE curriculum are positive.
