PE

Intent
 

PE at Holy Family aims to develop the knowledge, skills and capabilities necessary for mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing in our children now and their future. Physical fitness is a key part of leading a healthier lifestyle and our bespoke curriculum ensures every child has the opportunity to have an outstanding experience in PE. Our curriculum teaches self-discipline and that to be successful in life you must work hard, show resilience and have the determination to believe that anything can be achieved. We want to teach children how to independently cooperate and collaborate with others, as part of a team and as a leader, understanding fairness and competitiveness of play to embed life-long values. We ensure children reflect on their own, and others’, performance and use clear communication within PE lessons. Children are taught the importance exercise has on their physical and mental health which motivates them to exercise beyond their Primary years.
