PE & Sport Premium

Our P.E School Vision:

To enhance our physical literacy and to develop mental capabilities which enables us to compete with competence.

Our Principles of P.E Teaching

We know that great P.E takes place in our school when...

• Children are being active.
• There are opportunities for the application of skills to games and sport.
• There are opportunities for a healthy competitive attitude.
• Children are comfortable to try new things.
• There are opportunities for children to develop team and individual performances.

Children receive at least 2 hours of P.E each week. Some of these link directly to PE competitions that our school will be involved in. Children also receive 30 minutes of exercise daily from Active 30.

Summer Term


This Summer the children in key stage 1 will be looking at striking and hitting as well as athletics. During this they will be looking at famous sports stars including: Usain Bolt, Mo Farah, Joe Root and Steve Smith to gain an understanding of the sports stars who compete in these sports.

This Spring the children in key stage 2 will be focusing on cricket and tennis. During this they will be looking at some famous sports stars including: Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Rafa Nadal and Emma Radacanu to help to build their understanding of how to compete well in these sports, building on their prior knowledge and skills from the previous year group.

Mr Scott and Active 30

On top of the 2 hours weekly PE we have now altered the school day to ensure 30 active minutes of physical activity are provided for every child, at least three times a week. Mr Scott is now employed by the academy to assist in the delivery of these 30 active minutes and assist in helping us create long lasting active habits for our children.
