At the Dove-Shell Federation, we believe in giving all pupils, irrespective of their academic or physical ability, the opportunity to discover and develop their physical potential through a balanced and developmental programme of activities. We do so in the belief that physical education in a safe, supportive and challenging environment is a vital component in the development of children’s physical and emotional health and well-being. This, we believe, includes qualities such as enjoyment, tolerance, co-operation and the development of skills.
PE is taught by our sports coaches for 2 hours each week for each class. The progression and skills development covers the whole of the primary age range, building from physical development in the EYFS to the national curriculum expectations in Key Stage 1 and 2.
