Physical Education
Intent:
The intent of the Camps Hill PE curriculum is that every child has the chance to "learn, move, and grow" by participating in a variety of sports and learning the critical skills required for their developmental stage through a spiral curriculum. In early years, pupils will develop gross motor skills through a variety of activities developed from the foundation stage framework. To prepare KS1 pupils for KS2, students will acquire a larger variety of basic sports skills. By Ks2, the basic skills will be improved and applied to games and competition throughout PE lessons. Fundamentally, children are required to be active for most of their classes to improve their health and fitness.
Implementation:
Early Years
The foundation stage framework is used to create the curriculum for the Early Years, which includes preschool. Young children will acquire gross motor abilities by participating in more extensive play, and fundamental movements.
Ks1 and Ks2
Using Get set 4 PE, KS1 pupils will study broader sport skills at an advanced level. Every half term, there will be two topics, giving pupils a total of twelve topics per year. By year 2, they will have had more experience in some sports linking to movement such as dance and gymnastics.
In KS2, pupils will largely focus on sports except for some additional skill-based topics in years 3 and 4. Pupils will use their previous skill-based learning and apply it to the sport they are playing. Additionally, Pupils will take swimming classes in years 4 and 5.
Additionally, Camps Hill offers a wide range of sporting opportunities throughout the year through its sporting wow events (sports day, themed events), sport clubs, inter, and intra competitions.
How we measure impact:
Teachers will use end of unit assessment to gather evidence to make an end of year judgement. It will be recorded on Arbor stating whether pupils are working towards, at or above the age-related expectations.
