Review of the curriculum

The Director of Sport/AHT works closely with all primary staff and PE teachers reflecting on the PE provision ensuring that it is inclusive, broad and fit for purpose for our students. This ensures that PE provision is outstanding with clear sequencing building from the key fundamentals, to tactics and strategies needed to overcome opponents in team sports. The transition from KS2 to 3 is smooth with changes made to the KS3 curriculum to support the physical, social and cognitive developments made within KS2
