Key achievements to date (2020-21)

Areas for further improvement and baseline evidence of need:

Schemes of work for PE are now in place across the school in line with the new PE curriculum, including Foundation Stage. The new schemes will continue to be used in future years. Staff confidence and knowledge has been significantly improved giving them the confidence to deliver the curriculum in the continuing future.

An increased number of pupils this year have been involved in competitive situations at Level 1,2 & 3. We were able to maintain this during lockdown through work with the local SGO, winning several online Level 2 competitions and one Level 3 competition.

Development of outdoor education continues to engage less active pupils disinterested in competitive sports. Use of Forest School has significantly raised the number of pupils engaging in extra-curricular activity and continues to be one of our most popular clubs.

Staff confidence and ability to lead clubs and activities has resulted in more pupils being provided additional hours of extra-curricular PE.

Additional support at lunchtimes has promoted an ethos of active lifestyles and positive well-being.

Nursery now has a cycle track in use daily. FS pupils are developing a multitude of key motor skills including balance, core strength and improved fitness. 

Further developing our provision for Foundation Stage by offering at least one hour a week of extra-curricular PE.

Continue to develop the CPD needs of all staff teaching the PE curriculum, particular focus on well-being, mindfulness and life skills.

Continue to develop skills of lunchtime supervisors in delivering activities that  promote an active lifestyle and positive well-being.

Develop assessment of PE linked to skills progression.

This year the Government recognised that schools’ ability to collect swimming and water safety attainment data may have been interrupted by the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. As a result of covid-19 our 20/21 data is less than that of previous attainment.
