Physical Education Curriculum

“Sport teaches you character, it teaches you to play by the rules, it teaches you to know what it feels like to win and lose - it teaches you about life.”

- Billie Jean King, tennis player

PE develops our children’s knowledge and skills, so that they can perform with increasing competence and confidence in a range of physical activities. This area of the curriculum develops an understanding in children of their bodies in action and promote positive attitudes towards health and well-being. This enables children to make informed choices about physical activity throughout their lives.

Aims:

To develop a whole school approach to the teaching of PE, underpinned by the values of our T.O.P. model
To make PE and sport enjoyable and accessible for all
To embed the physical literacy, emotional and thinking skills needed to succeed in PE, with its benefits across the whole curriculum
To improve standards of achievement in PE and sport
To promote physical exercise and healthy-lifestyle choices
