PE
Our aim is to deliver high quality PE lessons to all children. Through well planned and structured lessons following our long-term PE overview, we want to give the children the best chance to develop their skills & experiences of a wide variety of sports. We use four organising principles to guide pupils’ development:
- Being active and healthy
- Knowing and using tactics and skills
- Teamwork
- Evaluating own and others’ performance
The PE Curriculum looks to cover a wide range of activities to allow a variety of skills to be learnt by the children. Each term topics will change to ensure a wide curriculum is covered with topics relating back to when competitions are taking place to allow children the chance to showcase what has been learnt. This will also support and tie in with when there is inter & intra competition taking place on the schools’ behalf to allow the children the best chance to perform at their highest level.
Our PE curriculum at Milton C of E Primary School follows the Cambridgeshire County Council PE scheme which consists of the following categories:
- Invasions games
- Net & Well
- Gymnastics, Athletics
- Striking & Fielding
- Outdoor Adventurous Activities
Lessons in these categories are covered across the school year with the skills learned in each topic being progressive as they move through school. Children will learn the basic skills required to play the sport so that they can develop this into game / match related play. They will also learn the rules and disciplines needed to take part in various sports & activities. Units of work such as Boccia and kurling further expose all pupils to a wide variety of new sporting opportunities.
