Physical Education

Curriculum Intent statement for Physical Education

We believe in providing ‘Every Child, Every Chance, Every day’ and this motto is at the heart of our PE lessons.

To offer an inclusive, cross-curricular curriculum which promotes and develops pupils’ knowledge, understanding and skills.
To teach children the British Values such as democracy and work with children to develop integral skills such as teamwork and respect.
To develop competence in the practical skills of a broad range of physical activities (knowing, applying and understanding the matters, skills and processes specified in the relevant programme of study).
To develop stamina.
To engage in competitive sports and activities.
To lead a healthy and active lifestyle.
To create a well-rounded ‘Weddy’ graduate who is able to apply their skills in their future lives.

A high-quality physical education curriculum inspires all pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities. It should provide opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. Opportunities to compete in sport and other activities build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.
