Physical Education

At Gordon, we recognise the important role physical activity and sport play in children's everyday life and their future well-being. We aim for every child to find enjoyment in physical activity and strive to provide children with a wide range of opportunities so that they can discover talents and interests and experience the benefits of an active lifestyle. We intent to deliver high-quality teaching and learning opportunities which not only teach children about physical fitness but about the importance of the values of sport such as teamwork, fairness and respect. 

The aims of Physical Education (PE) at our school are that all children:

  • adopt an active lifestyle and understand the benefits it provides,
  • develop a range of sporting skills across the national curriculum, including swimming,
  • are physically active for sustained periods of time,
  • engage in a range of competitive sports and activities,
  • lead healthy, active lives,
  • understand the importance and effect of exercise and being healthy,
  • develop a sense of fair play and a sporting attitude,
  • enjoy sporting activities and have fun, developing important habits such as resilience and perseverance.
