Physical Education

The Physical Education curriculum at Roselands Primary school is constructed to be ambitious and provide all pupils, regardless of need or barrier, with the opportunity to develop the knowledge and skills to enhance physical health in a range of activities. 

The curriculum is skills based in design, to allow it to be progressive throughout the school, allowing for skill acquisition to be built and developed across the curriculum. Skills that are developed throughout the curriculum will underpin the foundations of each individual child and allow for the skills and movement to be transferred across a range of activities and sports. This allows the opportunity for each pupil to excel with the skills developed. Collaborative activities will be built into the curriculum to allow for opportunities to develop team cohesion as well as nurture the social skills that will be fostered throughout the school. Pupils will develop their cognitive skills, understanding how to improve their own performance by developing a reflective culture throughout the environment, allowing for opportunities to self-reflect as well as reflect on peers.  All pupils will be stretched and encouraged to embrace challenge within PE in a safe and constructive environment. Pupils will be able to reflect on the changes and developments to their own body when exercising and how lifelong engagement in sport and activities can support their wellbeing and the ability to live a healthy life.

As pupils progress through the key stages, they will follow the Real PE curriculum alongside a broad range of sports using the GetSet4PE curriculum. There are continual opportunities for pupils to be competitive and challenge themselves and others within lessons, extra-curricular clubs, intra house competitions and sports festivals, inter school team events and School Games events. Our curriculum aims to improve the well-being and fitness of all children at Roselands, not only through the skills taught, but through enjoyment and the underpinning values and disciplines PE promotes.
