Intent

Why do we teach this? Why do we teach this in the way that we do?

Our P.E. curriculum will give children the opportunity to DEVELOP:

Develop: We provide a PE curriculum that focuses on the fundamental skills that children will require to help them develop the knowledge and physical skills for their future as active members of society, with a healthy approach to their lives.

 Experiences: We strive to provide the children with concrete experiences based on various sports and games, to enhance their enjoyment and enthusiasm towards physical education, both in-school, and extra-curricular.

Values: Many of our school values have an active role to play in our PE curriculum, such as; cooperation, respect, resilience and honesty and we do our upmost to develop these values through active play and learning.

Explore: We teach our children to be resourceful, reflective participants and learners, our curriculum allows them to experience multi-skills, gymnastics and dance, providing them with a progressive development of skills to take into their future PE learning.

Lifelong: Our PE curriculum provides children with the opportunity to become positive, confident individuals, eager and ready to do their best. We promote resilience and healthy lifestyles so that they can persevere and stay involved in their physical learning when it is challenging, skills essential for lifelong sporting participants.

Opportunities: We allow our children the freedom to develop their physical skills. It is our intention to provide opportunities for them to become physically confident in a way which supports both their fitness and their health, both inside and outside of school.

Purpose: We will strive to ensure that every child meets their full potential by engaging in physical activity for sustained amounts of time. The impact of our progressive PE curriculum will allow our children to develop healthy and active lifestyles, therefore becoming healthy and active members of the community.

The implementation of a high quality progressive Physical Education curriculum will be achieved by a whole school approach to delivering two lessons of physical education every week.  This will be broken down into all children receiving a one PE lesson with Mr Dunn our qualified Sports Coach, in addition to one PE lesson delivered by the class Teacher and twenty minutes of physical activity during break time and lunch time.  We will also be implementing extra-curricular activities and competitive sports opportunities through-out the academic year.
