PE – curriculum information

Physical Education holds a vital place in education and in society as well as being one of the great civilising subjects in the curriculum. Our aim is to develop the confidence and competence of each child in the PE curriculum. Our Physical Education programmes enable all children to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically demanding activities. It ensures opportunities to develop fundamental movement skills for pupils to become physically literate which supports their health, fitness and athletic development

 At Bricknell, we utilise the Physical Foundations scheme, alongside this our highly skilled subject leader has carefully worked to create a Curriculum Overview Document where objectives for each year group are progressively mapped out to ensure our pupils are given the acquired skills and knowledge the further their education journey into KS3.

Our aim is to provide inclusive and aspirational environments and learning experiences where pupils thrive and build the cultural capital they need to make aspirational choices about their own futures, overcoming any barriers. In order to achieve this, our curriculum is underpinned by the principles highlighted in our Aspiration Curriculum.
