Physical Education

Physical Education Overview

St Werburghs provides a high-quality PE curriculum that focusses on key fundamental movement skills needed to promote life-long enjoyment in physical activity. The school aims to improve 4 key areas:

·        Physical

·        Social & Emotional

·        Thinking Skills

·        Healthy Active Lifestyles

Our school uses a PE scheme of work purchased from Edsential to help us progress in those 4 key areas.

EYFS

Children focus on the basics in fundamental movement skills: movement, jumping, throwing and catching, ready to support them with the progression to KS1.

KS1

In KS1, children focus on key fundamental movement skills: agility, throwing, catching, jumping, striking and kicking. Lessons are structured to ensure children can become fluent in these skills, ready to apply them fully in KS2.

KS2

KS2 children focus on applying the fundamentals learnt in KS1. Skills such as keeping possession, linking actions, tactics and strategies are applied in a range of sports and game situations.

Afterschool Clubs

Children have an opportunity to participate in a range of sports and physical activities in our afterschool clubs. These include:

Football, Tag Rugby, Gymnastics, Basketball, Athletics, Rounders and Dance.
