Physical Education

Fencing

At Hugh Myddelton Primary School we believe that physical education, experienced in a safe and supportive environment is a unique and vital contributor to a child’s physical development and well being. A broad and balanced physical education curriculum is intended to provide for children’ increasing self-confidence in their ability to manage themselves and their bodies within a variety of movement situations.

PE

 We believe physical education should be an area of learning where self-esteem, physical progression and positive attitudes are fostered and nurtured. Physical Education provides all children with the opportunity to succeed, whether through personal or team success. Physical Education also promotes a healthy lifestyle which children can develop and value into adulthood.

Aims of our P.E Curriculum

•           Foster a love for and enjoyment of being active.

•           Develop ‘fitness for life’ through promoting the health benefits of regular exercise.

•           Identify talents

•           Develop self esteem, confidence and social skills.

•           Contribute to the physical development of every child.

•           Give children a way of expressing themselves and an opportunity to be creative.

•           Develop a range of skills that can be applied in other contexts.

•           Give children the opportunity to try out activities that they would not otherwise have access to.
