PE
Our PE curriculum aims to use a holistic approach to allow all to foster a love of physical activity.
Creating independent operators that can comfortably transition to multiple disciplines within Physical Education. We do this by developing students' fundamental skills and competence, to excel in a wide range of physical activities providing a broad and balanced curriculum with opportunities for all to be enjoyed.
A high quality PE curriculum will develop physical literacy and will allow pupils to learn about themselves, the importance of a healthy lifestyle, self-expression and concepts such as fair play and respect. It also contributes to the development of a range of important cognitive skills such as decision-making and analysis, and social skills such as teamwork and communication.
Our holistic approach will allow for students to become respectful and responsible within their actions and behaviours. Students will develop and build upon their relationships and resilience through challenges. Investing in themselves and others, being part of a community that celebrates inclusivity and diversity.
