Physical Education helps children develop health, fitness and wellbeing through a wide range of activities. They learn skills that support them in sport and in everyday life and begin to enjoy movement with confidence.

The curriculum helps children build physical skills step by step. They learn how to move with control, work as part of a team and apply their skills in different sports. Through thoughtful teaching they develop resilience, coordination and an understanding of how to stay active and healthy.

PE is taught weekly from Nursery to Year 6 by teaching staff or qualified sports coaches. Lessons are skills based so children learn core movements before applying them in a variety of sports. As they move through school they learn rules, tactics and how to play different positions. Children can also take part in lunch and after school clubs which offer further opportunities to develop skills in sports such as football, basketball, netball and gymnastics.

PE is fully inclusive and all children take part. Teaching is adapted where needed so every child can access learning in a meaningful way. Lessons are active and engaging. Children practise skills, take part in team activities and learn how to challenge themselves safely. Older children can become Play Leaders or members of the Sports Crew, helping to organise activities and support others.

Assessment is ongoing. Teachers use observation, discussion and performance to understand how well children are developing their physical skills. This helps identify strengths, address gaps and guide future teaching.
