PE and Sport

Intent

The intent of the primary physical education curriculum is to develop pupils’ physical competence, confidence and enjoyment of physical activity. The curriculum aims to ensure that all pupils develop fundamental movement skills and are able to apply these skills across a wide range of physical activities. It is designed to promote healthy, active lifestyles and to foster positive attitudes towards physical activity and sport.

The curriculum also intends to support pupils’ social and emotional development by encouraging teamwork, cooperation, resilience and respect for others. It ensures that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and disabilities and disadvantaged pupils, are fully included and supported to achieve their potential. By the end of primary school, pupils are intended to be physically active, confident movers who understand the importance of physical activity for their health and wellbeing.
