Physical Education
All children have two hours of PE teaching and learning every week and we ensure that children are physically active for sustained periods of time. We also endeavour for children to have access to 30 minutes of daily physical activity through their breaktimes and regular walks in the local area. We use the Sports Premium to ensure PE has a high priority throughout the school. The aim of Physical Education is to promote physical activity and healthy lifestyles. Children are taught to observe the conventions of fair play, honest competition and good sporting behaviour as individual participants, team members and spectators.
Children take part in games, gymnastic movement, dance and athletic activities using indoor and outdoor environments where appropriate. Children can take part in after school clubs and have the opportunity to compete against children in other house groups. All children in Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6 spend a term swimming once a week to enable them to leave the school being able to swim at least 25 metres independently.
