PE
At Grange Park School we offer a broad and varied PE curriculum that is appropriate and differentiated, yet ambitious for every individual. Pupils will develop sporting skills, tactics and strategies as well as developing life skills such as resilience, perseverance, independence and determination. Our aim is to give the pupils the knowledge and confidence to independently lead a physically active and healthy lifestyle both in school and beyond the PE curriculum. Throughout the Key Stages there is an even focus on the physical, socio-emotional and cognitive strands which creates a well-rounded, well developed active individual. We encourage pupils to implement team work and leadership skills in all lessons and we work hard on pupils’ resilience and tolerance so they can overcome any barriers.
We offer a range of traditional sports such as basketball, football, cricket and athletics as well as alternative activities such as kinball, boccia, new age kurling, ultimate Frisbee, parkour and trampolining. This mix of activities creates lessons where pupils have fun, are engaged, motivated and enthusiastic.
In Year 11 all pupils participate in the Sports Leaders UK leadership award. This is a Nationally recognised qualification where pupils develop their knowledge and understanding on skills and behaviours needed to be an effective leader. Pupils plan their own sessions, deliver them to other pupils and then evaluate their sessions. They take ownership of their sessions by choosing which sport they would like to teach, the aim of their session and the activities involved. We have found this award to be particularly useful in developing pupils’ communication, organisation and confidence. Pupils have reported that the skills developed on this course have been transferable to other situations such as college and work experience interviews.
Overall in PE we have created an atmosphere where pupils are engaged, try their best and are not afraid to make mistakes in order to make good progress and achieve their maximum potential.
