Intent

Physical Education (PE) is vital in providing opportunities for pupils to experience and develop their skills in a range of movements and non competitive and competitive sporting activities, to improve and foster positive physical and mental wellbeing. Our intent is to deliver high-quality teaching and learning that inspire all pupils to participate, enjoy and succeed. Through PE pupils will learn to cooperate to achieve common goals and reflect on their practice and suggest improvements, instilling life long skills such as respect, a sense of belonging and problem solving.

Aims

We help motivate children to participate in a range of sports and physical activities through high-quality teaching that is both engaging and motivating for our pupils. We instill our pupils with the necessary skills to become effective participants in a wide range of sports, who can work with determination, cooperation and respect, so that they can foster a life long passion for sport. We aim to enable our pupils to hopefully grow up to live happy and healthy lives by utilising the skills and knowledge that they have acquired through PE.

Hope School offers a range of PE for all children  which can be observed on this page, but in addition to this pupils have further opportunities to experience wider physical activities in addition to the PE Curriculum.
