PE AND SPORT

Curriculum Intention

At Harper Bell SDA our Physical Education (PE) curriculum is centred around a physical literacy approach that focus on fundamental movement skills. Fundamental movement skills provide a foundation for many physical activities including play, games, dance, outdoor activities and sports. Having these skills is an essential part of enjoyable participation and a lifelong interest in an active lifestyle. The intent of our curriculum is to enable children to learn and develop these fundamental skills through play and games.

Curriculum Implementation

 Throughout our careful curriculum mapping pupils will develop key fundamental movement skills from each of the three key principles Locomotor, Stability and Manipulative. These skills will be then directly transferred into specific games, dance and sports where pupil will start to develop their understanding of the rules/laws of a broad range of games and sports.

Curriculum Impact

  • For all pupils to acquire new knowledge and skills and develop an in-depth understanding of Physical Education.

  • Pupils to have the willingness to practice skills in a wide range of different activities and situations, alone, in small groups and in teams and to apply these skills in chosen activities to achieve exceptionally high levels of performance.

  • For all pupils to have the motivation to retain high levels of physical fitness and live a healthy lifestyle, achieved by eating sensibly, avoiding smoking, drugs and alcohol and exercising regularly.
