Lyndon Green Infant School
PE
We use Real PE in school to support our PE teaching. Real PE is an inclusive approach with the ambition that PE is a positive experience for EVERY child. It teaches children Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) and key learning behaviours to help achieve that ambition. The ambitious real PE curriculum enables all children to flourish and experience success throughout their primary school phase. Through a carefully planned and sequenced curriculum, which starts in EYFS, children build, revisit, and develop skills and knowledge as they progress through school, thereby developing a strong sense of self-efficacy.
Real PE is a curriculum that includes:
-structured and progressive physical development challenges
- skill application opportunities that involve rules
- strategies and tactics that are age and stage appropriate
- integrated review sessions that focus on healthy participation.
These enable children to progress and know ‘how’ to get better at PE.
Through core real PE and real PE foundations, children are taught FMS. They progress through a sequence of challenges that are explored through a thematic approach in EYFS and KS1 and skill focused sessions in KS2. These skills move from simple to complex and are further developed through stories, competitions and games. In addition to core real PE, these skills can be developed and extended in real gym and real dance.
