  • Links are made with external providers of sport to create community and school links

​The aim of ‘The Power of P.E’ is to help instill Physical Education at the heart of School life, one way we aim to achieve this is by creating robust cross-curricular links in progressive P.E lessons. We also teach a deep and broad curriculum of the highest quality!
Implementation
P.E. is taught at Sketchley Hill Primary School as an area of learning in its own right, as well as being integrated where possible with other curriculum areas using schemes such as ‘Active Learn’ to aid teachers in implementing this in the classroom.
 
 It is taught at a minimum of one PE session a week, and two sessions per week wherever possible. The key knowledge and skills of each topic are mapped across each year group. This ensures that children develop their knowledge of games, dance and gymnastics and (from KS2) athletics, competitive sports and outdoor and adventurous activity progressively. The skills in these areas are also therefore developed systematically, with the programme of study for each year group building on previous learning and preparing for subsequent years. The use of the Power of PE scheme allows clear progression both within the year group and throughout the school, enabling the achievement of key stage end points, as informed by the 2014 National Curriculum.
Picture
We teach lessons so that children:
  • Develop fundamental movement skills, become increasingly competent and confident and access a broad range of opportunities to extend their agility, balance and coordination, individually and with others.
  • Engage in co-operative physical activities, in a range of increasingly challenging situations.
  • Apply and develop a broader range of skills, learning how to use them in different ways and to link them to make actions and sequences of movement.
  • Enjoy communicating, collaborating and competing both against self and against others.
  • Develop an understanding of how to improve in different physical activities and sports.
  • Learn how to evaluate and recognise their own success.
 
Lessons are delivered by both class teachers and sports coaches (SiSports) utilising cross curricular links throughout its delivery where possible. The varied curriculum is designed to enable all children to enjoy physical activity and to experience success in sport. An extensive extra-curricular provision also provides further challenge and access to a range of physical activity. All children have the opportunity to participate in PE at their own level of development, with teachers ensuring that lessons cater for individual needs. As well as securing and building on a range of skills, children develop knowledge of the basic rules of a range of games and activities. They experience positive competition and a string focus is placed on developing good sporting attitudes. Children learn in a safe environment and have a foundation for lifelong physical activity, leaving primary school as physically active.
