P.E Action Plan Date: May 2013

Hardingstone Academy PE and Sports Action Plan

Overview From 01st September 2013, each primary school will receive around £8,000 every year to increase PE expertise and standards in this subject area. Although the funding is ring fenced for PE, schools are free to spend the money however they wish, providing PE expertise and ensuring quality PE is delivered. This funding should help the school provide a long legacy to the school PE curriculum.

National Curriculum 2014 Purpose of study: ‘A high-quality physical education curriculum inspires all pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically demanding activities. It should provide opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. Opportunities to compete in sport and other activities build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.’

Aims The National Curriculum for physical education aims to ensure that all pupils:  develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities  are physically active for sustained periods of time  engage in competitive sports and activities  lead healthy, active lives.

Hardingstone Academy’s Vision and Aims The staff of Hardingstone Academy aim to inspire all children to enjoy and immerse themselves in all different forms of sport. We endorse the purpose as stated in the 2014 National Curriculum. We believe physical education and sport is an essential for children leading a healthy physical and mental lifestyle. We believe that sport helps to develop the whole child academically, emotionally, socially and physically. Furthermore, the knowledge and skills gained from a young age in sport are accessed and utilised throughout later life.

All staff members strive to provide high quality physical education and a spectrum of sporting opportunities for every child, endorsing them to lead healthy and active lifestyles. Physical Education provides children with a variety of essential skills which are vital to all P.E Action Plan Date: May 2013 aspects of life, including good sportsmanship, opportunities to work with teammates, experiencing different contexts, conforming by rules, striving for excellence and not being discouraged or feeling failure if they do not win. These key skills are essential to create a successful and positive sporting culture. As a school we enter a variety of sporting festivals amongst the cluster schools and provide sporting tournaments within school for children to experience, develop and implement these skills.

All children at Hardingstone Academy experience two hours of timetabled physical education every week, as well as the opportunity to take part in a variety of free and paying extra curricular sporting clubs. We aim to offer a balanced and varied program of sport to provide all pupils with the opportunity to develop a good level of fitness, key skills and the knowledge necessary to apply those skills in different contexts throughout their lives. We want the children to see that sport is a vital part of school life and to see the connection with sporting skills to other contexts and achievements in life.

Hardingstone Academy aims to raise the aspirations of children, encouraging them to acquire skills to perform a variety of physical activities for every student within the school regardless of their sporting talent, physical and mental abilities or disabilities.
