Physical Education Intent
PE at Sherburn Primary School aims to develop the knowledge, skills and capabilities necessary for mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing in our children now and for their future. Physical fitness is an important part of leading a healthier lifestyle. It teaches self-discipline and that to be successful you must work hard, show resilience and have the determination to believe that anything can be achieved.
It is our intent at Sherburn to teach children life skills that will positively impact on their future. We aim to deliver high-quality teaching and learning opportunities that inspire all children to succeed in physical activities. We want to teach children how to cooperate and collaborate with others, as part of a team, understanding fairness and equity of play to embed life-long values.
DEPARTMENT FOR EDUCATION VISION FOR THE PRIMARY PE AND SPORT PREMIUM
ALL pupils leaving primary school should be physically literate and with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to equip them for a healthy, active lifestyle and lifelong participation in physical activity and sport.
The premium must be used to fund additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and sport to encourage the development of healthy, active lifestyles.
It is expected that schools will see an improvement against the following 5 key indicators
-
The engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity
-
The profile of PE and sport being raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement
-
Increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport
-
Broader experience of a range of sport and activities offered to all pupils
-
Increased participation in competitive sport
Implementation
Pupils at Sherburn participate in weekly high-quality PE and sporting activities. Our PE curriculum incorporates a variety of activities to ensure all children develop the confidence, tolerance and the appreciation of their own and others’ strengths and weaknesses. We provide opportunities for all children to engage in extra-curricular activities during and after school, in addition to competitive sporting events. This is an inclusive approach which endeavours to encourage not only physical development but also well-being.
