At Rood End Primary School we believe that the Physical Development which we provide forms an essential foundation for the growth of the whole child through the teaching of PE and Dance. As well as academic learning, pupils will be provided with the opportunity to develop their personal and social skills by promoting character building, cooperation, teamwork and self-esteem. In addition to this, spiritual and cultural understanding will also be developed. Emphasis is also placed upon leading a healthy lifestyle. We value Physical Education and the sporting activities we as a school provide during lessons, school clubs, break times and lunch times.

We aim to achieve high quality P.E, therefore our aims for each child are to:

• Enjoy P.E. and school sport;

• Improve and achieve;

• Be healthy and active;

• Acquire skills;

• Make decisions;

• Show commitment;

• Have stamina, suppleness and strength;

• Know and understand;

• Have confidence;

• Participate in activities which are competitive, creative and provide challenge – regardless of ability.
