P.E.

At Parkfield, we use our P.E. curriculum to not only promote a love of sport but to also provide our pupils to opportunity to:

• Engage in a variety of sports, clubs and sporting events that might not be available outside of school

• Develop an appreciation of dance by exploring a broad range of dance styles 

• Experience sports that aren't available within a primary school setting by visiting local secondary school

• Experience healthy competition by taking part in sport events both within the school and within the local community

• Understand how to lead a healthy and active lifestyle

So that the pupils can experience a wide range of sports, we use planning from The P.E. Hub. In Key Stage 1 we use this planning to build on skills that they will need within team sports. Once children enter Key Stage 2 they will begin to apply these learnt skills within sport focused lessons. These sports include: 

• Football

• Hockey

• Netball

• Tag Rugby

• Cricket

• Basketball

Dance and gymnastics are also throughout Key Stage 1 and 2.

In Year 3 and 4 children will get the opportunity to attend swimming lessons at the local swimming pool.
