Vision: 

As a department, we aim to provide a challenging, disciplined and safe environment for high quality teaching and learning in Physical Education. Pupils should experience a balance of activities which has the necessary breadth to inspire lifelong physical activity habits. Progression should be evident as the pupil passes through key stage 3 with a more personalised focused choice of activity in key stage 4. Pathways for accreditation suited to the pupil’s individual learning needs will also be offered through key stages four and five. The department is focused also on improving the leadership skills of our pupils to provide them with key employability skills, through their experiences in sport. The curriculum is also designed with a focus on health related exercise, with knowledge built through KS3 that will provide pupils with the information needed to plan and complete a personal fitness programme in adult life. We will ensure each pupil is offered a stimulating and relevant choice of extracurricular provision in both a recreational and elite capacity. By the end of their physical education at the College, pupils should have developed a personal commitment to, and genuine passion for sport, maintaining their health and well-being into adult life.

Curriculum Intent

At Saint Francis Xavier’s College the intent of teaching Physical Education is to give children the tools and understanding required to make a positive impact in their own physical health and well-being. We want all children to experience a wide variety of sports and physical skills which will enhance life-long fitness and life choices. PE can challenge and promote self-esteem through the development of physical confidence and problem solving. It can teach children to cope with both success and failure in competitive, individual and team based physical activities.

curriculum Implementation

The PE curriculum is structured to provide a range of sports experiences during which every child participates to develop their skills and learning through competitive, team and individual sports. Pupils will have access to a variety of sports and physical activities that are planned to enable all pupils with equal opportunities to take part and gain confidence in skills, understanding and motivation. All sports covered will focus on the development of 5 key skills, with each being introduced and progressed in increasingly more difficult situations as the pupils progress through key stage 3. Underpinning the KS3 curriculum are two main themes; leadership and health and fitness. Each PE lesson will allow leadership opportunities to the pupils to develop key employability and confidence skills that pupils will require both in school and in adult life. Key concepts and skills accessed in KS3 will be utilised in accredited PE and Sport courses at KS4 and KS5. Skills learnt in the PE programme will allow access to extracurricular and community sports clubs. Sports and activities covered in KS3 include: health related exercise, orienteering, football, basketball, table tennis, badminton, squash, handball, tennis, athletics, baseball and cricket. The ‘key skills’ approach will provide pupils with the capability and knowledge to not only participate in each sport in an extracurricular or community capacity throughout their time in school but also the opportunity to find the sports that they might access into adulthood. The curriculum is also designed with a focus on health related exercise, with knowledge built throughout  KS3 that will provide pupils with the information needed to plan and complete a personal fitness programme in their adult life.  Through this implementation we aim to achieve our intent and provide lifelong participation habits for our pupils, either through the enjoyment of playing sport or through deep knowledge of how to complete a personalised training programme.
