Physical Education

Our objective in physical education is to help every child find some aspect of this area of the curriculum which he/she enjoys and succeeds in. In order to achieve this, we endeavour to run as varied and challenging a programme of physical education as possible. At KS1 (Infants), PE and Games are timetabled for all children, and involves them in a basic and varied programme of gymnastics, dance, spacial awareness skills, ball skills and mini games. At KS2 (Juniors), the children will again have both gymnastics (floor, small and large apparatus), and dance. The games programme will involve all children in a progressive programme through a skills and small-sided game approach in soccer, rugby, netball, hockey, cricket and athletics. We use the hall, playgrounds, and Aylesbury Field, which is a 5 minute walk from the School, for these activities. Extra curricular clubs are run in soccer, cross-country running, cricket and athletics.

 

We work alongside the Plymouth Schools Sports Partnership to help build and foster a love of sports in our pupils. The PSSP regularly visits to help teach different sports and to run exciting competition days in our school.
