Physical Education (P.E)

Intent

Our PE curriculum aims to inspire all children to be active, show resilience and determination to learn new skills and enhance prior learning. We provide a safe and supportive environment which provides them with the opportunity to be successful in a range of physical activities. At Gilbertstone we teach key essential skills such as teamwork and leadership and our PE curriculum provides opportunities to further develop these skills. We encourage children to take part in the competition element of sport and to develop their understanding of the importance of fair play. Our curriculum is inclusive and supports all children in developing confidence in physical activity to support their health and fitness. We encourage pupils to develop their understanding of the way in which they can use their body, equipment, and apparatus safely, imaginatively, and effectively. Our PE curriculum, along with Science and RHE teaches children about the importance of physical activity and nutrition to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It also supports children in understanding how physical activity and healthy eating can impact positively on emotional wellbeing.

 

 

Implementation

Our PE curriculum follows a scheme of work from Get Set 4 PE and Cross Curricular Orienteering which are both closely aligned to the National Curriculum. These schemes support a clear and sequenced progression of skills and knowledge, both within each year group and from one year to the next. Children take part in twice weekly PE lessons in a wide range of sporting activities which include:

Swimming lessons are provided for KS2 by qualified swimming teachers to support children in being able to competently, confidently and proficiently swim a distance of at least 25 metres. After school sports clubs are also offered to pupils to enhance the sports provision on offer and provide children with an opportunity to further develop their skills. At lunchtimes, KS2 children also have the opportunity to participate in physical activity with sports coaches.
