Back to Prep Subjects
Welcome to Prep PE & Sports
As a department, our role is to give all of our pupils access to a broad and balanced
Physical Education Curriculum. Our Physical Education and Games programme effectively
promotes physical skills, physical development and knowledge of the body in action.
There are opportunities for individuals, groups and teams to be creative and competitive
in a range of contexts.
As a member of the South Dartmoor Sports Association, we provide a number of sporting
contexts for all children to be involved in, eg. high flyer events and tournaments.
Children have gone on to represent the school in Independent Schools Association
National sporting events.
Aims & Curriculum
Within this department we teach Physical Education and Games throughout Key Stage
1 and Key Stage 2. We adopt a whole-school approach to PE and Games in which skills
and techniques are visited and revisited. This ensures that tasks are devised which
reinforce previously learned skills and knowledge whilst helping children to develop
more complex skills and techniques. Topics covered include:
Key Stage 1 PE and Games:
General Skills, Ball Skills, Team Games, Gymnastics, Swimming.
Key Stage 2 PE and Games:
Hockey, Tag Rugby / Contact Rugby, Netball, Football, Cricket, Rounders, swimming,
Gymnastics, Dance, Swimming, Cross Country, Athletics.
Specialist coaches take some of the activities such as tennis, swimming, cricket
and dance.
