PE - Why do we teach it?
Physical Education provides a vital vehicle for movement, expression, wellbeing and enjoyment. Physical Education is accessible to all and, at Broomfield South SILC, we actively empower our learners to engage in physical activity in ways that are meaningful, inclusive and appropriate to their individual needs and abilities.
We offer a high-quality, ambitious Physical Education curriculum that is carefully adapted to suit our learners’ diverse and complex needs and is built upon a clear progression of skills from our youngest pupils through to our oldest students.
Our curriculum prioritises the development of fundamental movement skills, physical confidence and personal achievement, with a strong emphasis on participation, engagement and the process rather than the outcome.
Physical Education falls under three key areas:
Fundamental Movement and Physical Development
Games and Sport
Health, Fitness and Wellbeing
We strongly believe in the importance of providing a wide range of physical and enriching opportunities that support our learners’ physical development, social interaction, emotional regulation and overall wellbeing, alongside their academic progress.
