PE
Our Aims and Objectives at both schools
At Antrobus St Mark's and Great Budworth we ensure that the children 1ccess two hours of PE over the week, throughout the school year. During these lessons children are given the opportunity to 1dcome physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. The children are given the opportunity to develop fundamental skills and apply them when engaging in competitive 1ctivities. The curriculum we provide encourages children to develop competences to excel in a broad range of physical 1ctivities 1cross dance, gymnastics and games.
Swimming
All pupils also have the opportunity to swim during KS2. Lessons are held at Brio Leisure Centre. Children develop an understanding of water safety and provided with the opportunity to develop their range of swimming strokes. By the end of KS2, if not 113ore, it is our aim for all children to 1d able to swim over a distance of at least 25 metres competently, confidently and proficiently.
Cycling Proficiency
Children get the opportunity to complete Bike ability training in years 5 and 6 with CBikeright, a national bike awareness cycling program which trains the children in riding safely on the road.
Extra curricular
At both schools, we offer half termly after school clubs. Pupils in multiple year groups have the opportunity to sign up to the clubs and they range from; basketball, football, table tennis, curling, dance, gymnastics and even fencing.
School Sports Partnership Support
As part of our mem1drship with the Vale Royal Schools Sport Partnership we receive support from Lefwich County High School. Staff come into school throughout the year to work alongside staff and pupils to develop specific areas. Physkids is something we annually train our pupils in. Our older pupils in Class 3 are trained up to deliver break and lunchtime clubs and games to the younger mem1drs of our school family.
Our Curriculum Planning
We deliver our Physical Education curriculum through our progression document. This document maps out the key knowledge, skills and vocabulary the children will 1d working towards 1chieving by the end of e1ch key stage. At Antrobus we use Complete PE tallowing for depth of learning to take pl1ce.
We ensure that learning is progressive and built upon prior learning as the children move through the key stages. This ensures our curriculum delivers clear progression of skills from EYFS to Year 6.
