Intent

Physical Education is an integral part of our curriculum at All Saints C of E Primary School , We strive to create a culture that is inclusive and engages all pupils. We aim to deliver high-quality teaching and learning opportunities that enable all children to achieve their personal best. We provide a safe and supportive environment for all children to flourish in a range of different physical activities which is essential in supporting their physical, emotional, spiritual, social and moral development.

 Our curriculum aims to improve the well-being and fitness of all children, not only through the sporting skills taught, but through the underpinning values and disciplines PE promotes.

Children develop the knowledge, skills and competence to excel in a broad range of sports and physical activities. All children participate in competitive sport which can be against self and/ or others. We provide opportunities for children to compete in inter school sporting activities where the young person’s motivation, competence and confidence are at the centre of the competition. Swimming is an important skill for life and it is our aim that all children leave primary school having met at least the minimum requirements of the National Curriculum. 

We wish to inspire an active generation to enjoy PE, encourage each other and achieve. We encourage our children to transfer our school values of Achieve, Respect, Include Support, Enjoy into our sporting activities to create a positive attitude towards physical wellbeing.  Therefore, enabling pupils to make informed decisions to lead healthy and active lives long into the future.

Implementation

At All Saints C of E Primary we provide challenging and enjoyable learning through a range of sporting activities including invasion games, net & wall games, striking and fielding games, gymnastics, dance, and swimming.

• Pupils participate in at least 2 hours of high quality PE per week covering two different sports/ skills focuses each half term.
• The long-term plan for PE sets out the PE units which are to be taught throughout the year and ensures that the requirements of the National Curriculum are fully met.
• All teachers have access to planning and resources that are adapted to the individual needs of the children in their class. This ensures progression across units and across the years as the children move through the school.  
• Children attend swimming lessons in Year 6.
• We provide children with opportunities to participate in extra-curricular activities through various after school clubs that are inclusive, enjoyable and increase children’s physical activity.
• Our playground markings and outdoor gym are used as an integral part of our PE lessons ensuring all children are physically active throughout all PE lessons.
• Children are encouraged to stay active at break times and can access a variety of equipment including various climbing apparatus and the outdoor gym.
• Children are invited to attend competitive sporting events and festivals within the local area. This is an inclusive approach which endeavours to encourage not only physical development but also mental well-being. These events also develop teamwork along with leadership skills and are very much enjoyed by the children.

Impact

At All Saints C  of E Primary School, we ensure that our PE curriculum is progressive and allows children to develop fundamental skills and apply them to a variety of sports and activities. We aim to improve the wellbeing and fitness of all children

not only through the sporting skills taught, but through the underpinning values and disciplines that PE promotes including resilience. Physical activity has a positive impact on learning in the classroom. Children can represent the school at local sporting events and festivals. Sporting achievements both in and out of school are shared in Celebration Assembly. All pupils understand the values and importance of fair play and being a good sportsperson. Children understand how to lead a healthy lifestyle and understand the importance of regular exercise. We aim for all Year 6 pupils to leave school with the skills to competently swim at least 25m and have the skills to self-rescue in the water which are key life skills. We aspire for children to enjoy PE and develop a love of sport and physical activity which becomes part of their future life outside of primary school.

All Key Stages have 2 hours of high quality PE teaching per week. 

We adapt our scheme of work to suit all learners and deliver the lessons in a whole class group.
