Our aim is to ensure all children:

• Develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities
• Are physically active for sustained periods of time
• Are confident to be able to participate and officiate in competition
• Suitably challenged and provide opportunities for all children to excel
• Have the skills and confidence to continue sport beyond school
• Lead healthy and active lifestyles both in and out of school

Planning and Progression:

The majority of our Physical Education sessions are delivered by Tom Littlewood, our sports specialist and qualified teacher, ensuring that quality and consistency is delivered across all lessons. Our long-term curriculum map is carefully planned to allow for our six core themes to be developed and mastered during their time at Feering. During KS1 these are taught through specific skills-based sessions which builds into sport specific sessions during KS2. The use of PE Passport ensures that we are providing age-related challenges to all children and to promote progression through sessions. When other practitioners are teaching Physical Education sessions, they follow PE Passport Planning and provide evidence through the app. Staff are observed half-termly by the PE Lead to check for consistency and quality of delivery across the school.

To give children a broader experience of physical activity during lessons, children in KS1 regularly visit our on-site forest school, which provides children the skills to support them in growing up in their local environment. During the Spring term, the PE Lead delivers a six-week taster program which gives children the opportunity to try a range of sports they would not normally take part in, such as; archery, fencing, orienteering and golf.
