Amazing PE at St Anne's
Intent/What we aim to do through our PE Curriculum
At St. Anne's we understand how important it is for our pupils to leave primary school as healthy, fit active children who show tolerance towards others and good sportsmanship. Through sport, we hope that our children will learn that hard-work, dedication and a, ‘never give up attitude’ will not only benefit them through sport, but also through life; whatever avenues they choose to pursue.
We also understand how important it is for our pupils to engage in regular activity and recognise that a healthy diet is key when leading a full life-style. We have therefore put together a carefully crafted curriculum to ensure that the sporting educational journey our pupils take with us is a successful one, and prepares them for the next stage in their education and life.
Adaptations are made to PE lessons to ensure that all children are able to access the curriculum and are not disadvantaged by Special Educational Needs or Disability.
- ‘The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning.’ – Pele, football
- ‘I’ve failed over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.’ – Michael Jordan, basketball
- ‘A champion is defined not by their wins but by how they can recover when they fall.’ – Serena Williams, tennis
- ‘Courage, sacrifice, determination, commitment, toughness, heart, talent, guts. That’s what little girls are made of; the heck with sugar and spice.” Bethany Hamilton, surfer
- ‘As long as you have discipline, you can be a success.’ Anthony Joshua, boxer
Our intent in the teaching of PE is rooted in Catholic Social Teaching.
We believe
- that in learning PE, children become more aware of their own dignity and of the importance of taking care of their body and mind through physical activity. Furthermore, when competing, they are required to respect others and to acknowledge and celebrate their talent and skill.
- that in undertaking team sports and competitions, children learn about the importance of participation and the need for everyone to contribute.
- that the common good is built by children working together as they do in PE.
Implememtation/How we teach PE
PE at St. Anne’s Primary School provides challenging and enjoyable learning through a range of sporting activities including; invasion games, strike and field games, gymnastics, dance and swimming.
The long term plan sets out the PE units which are to be taught throughout the year and ensures that the requirements of the National Curriculum are fully met.
Pupils participate in two PE lessons each week (one delivered by our amazing PE coach Miss Gould sport orientated and the other by class teachers using the real PE scheme of work).
Real PE is a unique, child-centred approach. It transforms how we teach PE to engage and challenge EVERY child in primary school.

It focuses on the fundamental movement skills of a child's physical development:
* Agility
* Balance
* Coordination
Also, develops the whole child, each term there is a multi ability focus:
* Personal
* Social
* Cognitive
* Creative
* Physical
* Health and Fitness
The children will be developing their fundamental movements in the Real PE lessons.

In addition, children are encouraged to participate in the varied range of extra-curricular activities. Also, children can attend after school sport clubs run by our sport coach Miss Gould.
Children are invited to attend competitive sporting events within the local area. This is an inclusive approach which endeavours to encourage not only physical development but also mental well-being. These events also develop teamwork and leadership skills and are very much enjoyed by the children.
Each year a small group of Year 6 children are invited to become Sports Leaders for the school. They develop into sporting role models for the younger children, assisting with a range of Sporting activities.
Children in Year 4 swim once a week for 10 weeks during the Spring Term.
We have launched the “Daily Mile”, to help meet the government target of all children being active for at least 60 minutes a day.

Impact/Children's Learning
At St. Anne’s, we help motivate children to participate in a variety of sports through quality teaching that is engaging and fun. From our lessons, our children learn to take responsibility for their own health and fitness, many of whom also enjoy the success of competitive sports. We equip our children with the necessary skills and a love for sport. They will hopefully grow up to live happy and healthy lives utilising the skills and knowledge acquired through PE.
