Abstract
This study sets out the features of Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) in the United Kingdom, especially the contents and educational methods for children with behavioral difficulties. The results were as follows:
PSHE is an educational program which focuses on the child's comprehensive development of self-understanding, self-awareness and self-esteem through active learning such as role-play. In PSHE practice, it is considered important to teach how to manage one's behavior, not in an individual or isolated way, but in way that is integrated with the whole curriculum in the whole school approach, focusing on becoming conscious of the relationship of the individual and society. Furthermore, PSHE stresses the need for continuous gradual school improvement and development involving both parents and community so as to include children with behavioral difficulties in regular schools.
