PE
At Kirkby CE Primary School, we recognise the importance of Physical Education in developing the whole child – physically, socially, emotionally and mentally. We want every child to leave our school with a lifelong love of being active and the confidence to make healthy lifestyle choices.
Our PE curriculum, delivered through the Get Set 4 PE scheme from EYFS to Year 6, is designed to:
- Inspire all children to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically demanding activities.
- Provide opportunities for children to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness.
- Offer chances to compete in sport and other activities that build character and help embed values such as fairness, respect and resilience.
- Ensure inclusivity, enabling every child to participate, progress and succeed, regardless of their starting point or individual need.
- Promote collaboration, co-operation and independence, fostering transferable skills that prepare children for life in 21st Century Britain.
We aim for all pupils to leave Kirkby CE with the skills, knowledge and self-belief to remain active and engaged in physical activity beyond primary school.
