  • A balance between competitive and non-competitive activities.
  • Providing opportunities for achievement of each child.

PE in our School


​​Physical Education
​ 
A broad P.E. curriculum is delivered, at all class levels. Our school allocates a balanced amount of teaching time to each of the different P.E. strands over the course of the school year. Taking part in the Active School Flag initiative will help us to focus on how we can improve on the provision of P.E. in our school.

​
All teachers, using the Move Well, Move Often resources, prioritise four different FMS for further development within their PE programme each year

We aligned each FMS to a PE strand to ensure a balanced amount of time was given to each one.

PE equipment in our school

 
Each year our schools likes to update our PE equipment. All classes are responsible for making sure equipment is returned neatly after each use.  We annually audit our PE equipment and throw out any old or broken equipment.
