"Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity."

-John F. Kennedy-

 

1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (NIV)
"Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.”

 

At Heyhouses School we are committed to the health and well-being of our pupils. We understand how a broad and inclusive provision benefits the individual and the school in general. Our approach to Physical Education focuses very much on the holistic child and as we strive for excellence in performance we also recognise every child’s achievements will be different. We celebrate the creativity, commitment, leadership and analytical skills of our children, skills we look to develop through our curriculum and extra-curricular offer.

PE enables children to learn confidence, perseverance, team spirit and organisation. We believe that children must engage in a programme of PE that encourages fitness, improves their strength, suppleness, stamina and teaches those rules of games and an understanding of how to perform to an audience. This allows pupils to gain a sense of achievement and to develop positive attitudes towards themselves and others.

Through our use of the PE Passport we aim to provide a well-balanced curriculum which covers the statutory requirements for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the PE National Curriculum.
