Intent

At Enderby Road Infant School we recognise the importance of Physical Education.

We aim to inspire all children and for each child to fulfil their potential. We want the children’s experience of PE to be positive and motivating.

We understand the importance of delivering high quality P.E. lessons which enable children to learn new skills which are embedded and then refined, resulting in all children becoming physically confident.

Effective P.E supports health, wellbeing and fitness and provides the foundations for lifelong activity.I

Implementation

Enderby Road Infant School provides a PE curriculum which carefully plan for progression and depth of skills through series of lessons. In KS1, pupils take part in two sessions of physical activity each week which provide challenge and enjoyable learning by using a range of sporting activities such as: games, net and wall games, strike and field games, gymnastics and dance.

On one afternoon each week the whole school takes part in either street dance, led by a local dancing teacher or in the summer term, Yoga.

The year two children undertake a course of swimming lessons at our local pool.

The EYFS has one formal PE session a week alongside the environmental physical environment of the EY curriculum. This focuses on fundamental movement skills.

Long Term Plans are used to set out units that are to be taught and ensure that the National Curriculum objectives are fully met.
