PE

Our aim is to provide a PE curriculum that focuses on the whole child, improving their social, emotional, physical and mental wellbeing through inspiring, interactive and inclusive opportunities.

Curriculum
At Ashwicken CE Primary School, we use the GetSet4PE scheme which teaches Fundamental Movements skills (agility, balance and co-ordination) alongside personal, social, cognitive, creative, physical and health and fitness skills from year 1 through to year 6 for 1 session a week.

In EYFS, the children are given lots of opportunity to practise the skills taught in PE and their fine and gross motor skills, by accessing their outdoor areas and by using a wide variety of sports equipment, including, balance bikes, balls, beanbags, hoops and apparatus.

In KS1 and KS2, the children are given a 2nd session of PE in a wide variety of physical activities, e,g. OAA, dance, gymnastics, invasion, striking and fielding games, forest school, swimming as well as Athletics, to practice, consolidate and evidence the skills taught in GetSet4PE.

Extra-Curricular Activities
