IMPLEMENTATION
P.E. is taught at Ingleton C of E Primary School as an area of learning in its own right as well as integrated where possible with other curriculum areas. It is taught at a minimum of two PE sessions a week, one of which is delivered by a trained sports coach.
We teach lessons so that children:
- Have fun and experience success in sport
- Have the opportunity to participate in P.E at their own level of development
- Secure and build on a range of skills
- Develop good sporting attitudes
- Understand basic rules
- Experience positive competition
- Learn in a safe environment
- Have a foundation for lifelong physical activity, leaving primary school as physically active.
IMPACT
P.E is taught as a basis for lifelong learning, where the children have access to a wide range of activities in the belief that if taught well and the children are allowed to succeed, then they will continue to have a physically active life. A high-quality physical education curriculum inspires all children to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically demanding activities. At Ingleton C of E Primary School, we provide opportunities for children to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. Opportunities to compete in sport and other activities build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.
In addition, we measure the impact of our curriculum through the following methods:
- A reflection on standards achieved against the planned outcomes.
- A celebration of achievements both inside and outside of school.
- Tracking of skills.
- Pupil discussions and demonstrations of their learning / achievements.
