P.E. Statement of Intent

At Cupernham Junior School, our intent is to inspire children to have passion for sport, fitness and healthy living during their childhood and throughout their lives. We recognise the sporting strengths of each individual and work hard to develop these appropriately. Each member of staff aims to deliver high quality P.E. lessons, through an enriching curriculum of skills and sports.

Progressing from their Key Stage 1 physical education, the children will build a broader range of skills that they will learn to apply when competing in a variety of sporting activities. Through Key Stage 2, they will learn to communicate, collaborate and evaluate their performance. In addition to developing their flexibility, strength, technique, control, balance and accuracy.
