The PE curriculum at Churston Ferrers is designed to deliver an exciting and wide-ranging learning experience that ignites a passion for sport. Our students are given the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of different sports, physical activities, and their associated benefits. Through a varied and exciting curriculum, we aim to:
Develop essential life skills such as teamwork, leadership, resilience, and respect for others, all of which are fostered through sports and physical activities.
Encourage personal growth by promoting risk-taking in a safe environment, helping students build confidence, improve their physical literacy, and take ownership of their learning journey, regardless of their ability.
Promote physical and emotional well-being, ensuring that all students have the tools and knowledge to maintain a healthy lifestyle and make informed choices regarding their health and fitness.
Provide a platform for self-esteem and confidence through physical achievements, both in competitive and cooperative settings, helping students cope with success and failure.
Support lifelong engagement by fostering a deep appreciation of physical activity, encouraging students to value its importance throughout their lives, beyond school.
Through engaging, hands-on experiences, we aim for our students to leave Churston Ferrers not only physically fit but also equipped with vital social and emotional skills that are transferable into all aspects of life.
