Physical Education
Aims:
We want all pupils to love being active and enjoy sports. By learning key skills and concepts, they will stay active throughout their lives.
What do pupils learn in PE?
Early Years, KS1 & KS2: Pupils play and explore to understand their bodies and learn basic movement skills.
KS3 & KS4: Pupils use their knowledge to participate in sports or physical activities that match their interests and skills.
Post 16: Pupils follow a specialized curriculum with opportunities like the Duke of Edinburgh Award and Sports Leadership Awards.
Competitions:
All students can compete against their peers at Tweendykes, and some can compete with students from other schools. This helps them find purpose and enjoy physical activity.
Why is the PE curriculum important?
We aim for all pupils to be as independent as possible and gain ‘real life’ skills for adulthood, such as staying active and living a healthy lifestyle. We also encourage them to develop personal interests that they can continue throughout their lives, like playing a sport, using the gym, or planning walks.
