All students have 2 hours of high quality PE every week. The curriculum provides opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way that supports their health and fitness. It is also a priority to encourage all students to develop a love for sport and physical activity that will continue into secondary school and beyond to help support an active healthy life.
For PE at Radford we use the PE Planning curriculum, which is a unique, child-centred approach that engages and challenges every child. It focuses on the development of agility, balance and coordination, healthy competition and cooperative learning.
Every child will have the opportunity to take part in competitive activity against another school, in addition to the various matches and competitions in a variety of sports against other schools for different year groups. There is a wide range of extra-curricular PE clubs run by school staff as well as by specialist coaches. Radford Primary Academy takes part in the Coventry School Games competitions which promotes competition between primary schools.
We have an annual Sports Day in June on our field where parents can come along to support (and join in). We also have a Health and Fitness block of work for all year groups which compliments our science curriculum.
