Physical Education S3 - Core

As in S1 and S2, in S3 Core PE, you will have the opportunity to experience a broad variety of sporting activities in your class. Having discovered and built on skills in S1 & S2, you will further explore and build on these through some of the same activities, whilst others may be new to you. You will have 1 x 100 minute session per week and each block will consist of 1 term.

The S3 Core PE programme will entail both indoor and outdoor activities such as Tennis, Cycling, Basketball, Gym-Based Fitness, Table Tennis, Scottish Country Dance, Aesthetics (Gymnastics/Dance/Parkour/Cheerleading), Badminton, Volleyball, Rugby, Swimming, Lacrosse, Athletics, and Softball.

Pupils must be prepared to go outside for PE during the term between Easter and Summer and the term from Summer to October.  Appropriate clothing should be taken to cope with all types of weather.

Core PE continues in S4 where you continue to engage in 200 minutes per week, though in a different format.
