Pupils at Coatbridge High School receive one lesson of Personal, Social and Health Education each week from S1 to S6.

Many topics are covered under the following headings:

• Mental, Emotional, Social and Physical Wellbeing
• Planning for Choices and Changes
• Physical Activity
• Food and Health
• Substance Misuse
• Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood

These lessons offer a platform to help pupils build their self-esteem and confidence, and understand their feelings and emotions. During lessons, pupils learn about topics that will help them develop as confident individuals and prepare them for life in the future.

In S6 pupils who are applying to University attend a UCAS class which assists them in preparing their UCAS application form.
