Physical Education (PE)

STATEMENT OF INTENT 

At Christ the King we recognise the value of Physical Education. Our intent is to develop the enjoyment and confidence of pupils to participate in physical activities; enabling them to achieve personal successes and providing them with lifelong physical skills. We also strive to educate pupils about healthy and active lives alongside fostering positive attitudes towards physical education.

 

PHYSICAL LITERACY

At Christ the King, we place a high value on encouraging children to be physically active. Our very own Sports Co-ordinator, Mr. Ashworth, works with staff, pupils and outside organisations to promote and facilitate physical activity within our school community.  We aim to ensure that every child advances well in their physical literacy development, building the foundations for an active life for our pupils.

 

We encourage pupils to remain active throughout the school day, regardless of the weather! Wide-ranging and engaging curriculum units are planned, delivered and assessed. We also provide before and after school sports groups for all classes on a rotating termly offer, such as archery, dodgeball, and active blast circuit training. CTK also works with external sport providers who deliver exciting and unique after school club programmes. 

Through our continued work with the Burnley School Sports Partnership (BSSP), and through relationships with our fellow schools, we aim to provide lots of opportunities for children to represent school in inter-school sports events, linked to the school games framework.
