PE  Statement of Intent

Here at Hylton Castle Primary School we recognises the value of Physical Education (P.E). Following the National Curriculum for physical education, we believe all children should:

develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities

are physically active for sustained periods of time

engage in competitive sports and activities

lead healthy, active lives

Implementation

  • Each week 2 PE lessons are taught by a specialised sports coach.
  • Each ½ term pupils must be taught two areas of PE skills. (Dance/ Gymnastics/ Games/ Athletics/ / Swimming (KS2) Block teach each unit following the scheme.
  • Every effort needs to be made to ensure children take full part in PE lessons, wearing kit ideally.  However, no child should be excluded from PE lessons.
  • Y4 take part in skipping competition with other Sunderland schools.
  • Sports premium funding enables specialised coach in role.
  • Each PE skill has a progression document from Reception-Y6 which clearly demonstrates progress expected in each skill – athletics, games, gymnastics, dance
