PE and Sport

Teaching the Importance of a healthy lifestyle
We aim to deliver a high-quality physical education curriculum that builds essential skills, teaches physical literacy and teaches children the importance of a healthy lifestyle. Through this curriculum all pupils have the opportunity to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities. We provide opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. Children also learn to value fairness and respect through their physical education.

Our curriculum is adapted to suit the needs of individual children making allowances for those with disabilities and medical conditions, taking into account children with special needs, through modified and mini versions of games and practices.
​

Subject Content

Key Stage 1
Pupils should develop fundamental movement skills, become increasingly competent and confident and access a broad range of opportunities to extend their agility, balance and coordination, individually and with others. They should be able to engage in competitive (both against self and against others) and co-operative physical activities, in a range of increasingly challenging situations.

Pupils are taught to:
  • master basic movements including running, jumping, throwing and catching, as well as developing balance, agility and coordination, and begin to apply these in a range of activities.
  • participate in team games, developing simple tactics for attacking and defending.
  • perform dances using simple movement patterns.

Key Stage 2
Pupils continue to apply and develop a broader range of skills, learning how to use them in different ways and to link them to make actions and sequences of movement. They enjoy communicating, collaborating and competing with each other. They develop an understanding of how to improve in different physical activities and sports and learn how to evaluate and recognise their own success.

Pupils are taught to:
  • use running, jumping, throwing and catching in isolation and in combination.
  • play competitive games, modified where appropriate (for example, basketball, cricket, football, hockey, netball, tennis), and apply basic principles suitable for attacking and defending.
  • develop flexibility, strength, technique, control and balance (for example, through athletics and gymnastics).
  • perform dances using a range of movement patterns.
  • take part in outdoor and adventurous activity challenges both individually and within a team.
  • compare their performances with previous ones and demonstrate improvement to achieve their personal best. 
  • Swimming and water safety - in Year 4 our children are taught to swim in a weekly lesson.
