Physical Education

In the words of Nelson Mandela, “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.”

Intent

At Huntington Community Primary School, we aim to provide a high-quality physical education curriculum that enables pupils to succeed and excel in a variety of sporting activities. Our school aims to inspire all children to develop a love of physical activity and sport. We intend to encourage pupils to take part in competitive sports and to become physically confident in a way that supports their health and fitness. Our key values of fairness, resilience and respect are embedded within our P.E. lessons and physical activities. We are dedicated to ensuring healthy minds, as well as bodies, and will continue to support our children’s well-being.

In line with the national curriculum, we aim to ensure that all pupils:

Develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities.
Are physically active for sustained periods of time.
Engage in competitive sports and activities.
Lead healthy, active lives.

Our main intention is that our children leave primary school with the capabilities to be successful in their sporting challenges and maintain active, healthy lifestyles in secondary school and beyond.

Our P.E. Curriculum

At Huntington Community Primary School, we have adopted 'Get Set 4 P.E.' as our scheme of work, to deliver fun, engaging and exciting P.E. lessons, from Nursery to Year 6.

Get Set 4 P.E. ensures an appropriate balance, distribution and progression of work across each sport. It allows activities to be delivered that build upon children's prior learning - the children are increasingly challenged as they progress through the years.
