A high-quality physical education curriculum inspires all pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities. It should provide opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. Opportunities to compete in sport and other activities build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.
Aims
The national curriculum for physical education aims to ensure that all pupils:
develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities
are physically active for sustained periods of time
engage in competitive sports and activities
lead healthy, active lives.

2023-2024
Nursery
For our hall time this week, we continued the theme of body parts. Our objective was to develop balance whilst both stationary, and on the move. We warmed up by moving at different speeds and in different directions. We then moved around the space and when the teacher named a body part, we had to stop safely and touch that body part to the floor.
We practised our team work and co-operative skills in a classroom PE session. We listened to instructions and were able to work together to raise the parachute, keep the ball moving and even to run and cross over underneath.
We competed against each other in our obstacle race where we had to jump in the tyres, balance on the planks, move through the hoop, jump off the crate and balance the quoit on our heads to the finish line. We used lots of our skills of balance and weight transference to complete the course.
