At Silver End Academy, our Physical Education curriculum aims to develop pupils’ physical competence, confidence, and enjoyment of movement, supporting their lifelong health and well-being. Following the Primary PE Planning scheme, we deliver a broad and balanced programme that nurtures physical literacy and inspires all children to lead active, healthy lifestyles.
Our curriculum:
Develops fundamental movement skills (FMS) as the foundation for more complex physical activities and sports.
Provides a carefully planned and progressive sequence of lessons that build skills, knowledge, and understanding across a wide range of physical activities.
Encourages pupils to apply insights from related disciplines such as physiology, psychology, and sociology to enhance performance and participation.
Promotes the development of teamwork, communication, resilience, and respect through collaborative and competitive activities.
Emphasises safe practice, teaching children to understand risk, make sensible decisions, and take responsibility for their own health and well-being.
Supports pupils in making informed lifestyle choices that contribute to their physical and mental health.
Offers both curriculum PE lessons and extra-curricular opportunities, enabling all pupils to engage in physical activity beyond the classroom.
Ensures inclusivity, making PE accessible, enjoyable, and challenging for every child, regardless of ability or background.
At Silver End Academy, we are committed to providing a high-quality PE education that empowers pupils to know more, do more, and live active, healthy lives.
