Our Vision for Physical Education

Our vision for Physical Education at Horsley C of E Primary School is to inspire all children to develop a love for physical activity, encouraging lifelong health and well-being. Through a broad and balanced curriculum, we aim to equip our pupils with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to lead active and healthy lifestyles. We strive to create an inclusive environment where every child can succeed, fostering resilience, teamwork, and personal growth while nurturing a knowledge of sports, their rules, and the skills to perform and compete competently. Our goal is to empower pupils to enjoy various physical activities in school and beyond, and to understand the value of maintaining physical health throughout their lives.

Summary of Ofsted's PE Research Review

PE at Horsley

PE is at the heart of our outdoor learning, and we believe that ALL children should have the opportunity to:

Achieve their full potential in PE and school sport
Receive high-quality PE and sports teaching
Engage in exciting and challenging that encourage active, healthy lifestyles.

Horsley is an all-inclusive school where events and competitions push, challenge and excite every child. We are part of a long-established sports network, School Sports Games and Atlas Games, which organises many sporting festivals. They allow us to compete against local schools in a variety of sports. In addition, intra-school competitions prepare children to take part and fulfil their potential.

Our programme of study includes a progression of skills, and each child has the opportunity for two hours of PE a week. In addition, we use dance, gymnastics, invasion games, net/wall games, striking and fielding games, athletics, and outdoor adventurous activities to deliver quality first teaching and promote a lifelong active lifestyle.

We have specialist teachers and instructors that support physical education within our curriculum. In addition, all teachers receive training and opportunity to keep developing their subject knowledge, skills, and understanding to support curriculum development throughout the school.

We have an extensive physical after-school provision that aims to create confident and healthy children. Additional school programmes and initiatives run alongside lessons to further develop areas of sport such as 'The Weekly Mile'.
