Physical Education

We are: Healthy

We believe strongly that our children should be healthy, engaged learners able to collaborate and work well as a team.  Our Physical Education programme works to challenge our pupils and their basic skills throughout the 4 years that they are here, it also encourages them to be as active and engaged as possible, building a positive approach to their future lifestyle. 

Please click here to see our full Physical Education Policy. 

We work hard to offer opportunities that our children would not normally engage in and to use resources and highly skilled individuals to get the most out of their learning.  We go to Graves Park for our Gymnastics lessons to use Olympic standard equipment (we also get to meet Olympians every now and again!). We explore Trampolining at Graves Park too and offer additional training out of school if this is a skill that our pupils particularly excel at (so far we have 3 pupils training with an Olympic team!). 

We take part in multiple competitions and and work with other schools to offer as many challenges and exciting possibilities as possible.  

Our children LOVE P.E. and this is because they have ample opportunity to explore their skills, remain healthy and work collaboratively. We work hard to ensure that these skills can be applied outside school and beyond Year 6.
