Overview of Physical Education Curriculum

Our Physical Education Curriculum

At Ridgeway we aim to provide all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities and disadvantaged pupils, with a broad, high quality and relevant physical education. Through a well-structured and progressive school curriculum, we enable all children to develop and challenge their knowledge, skills and understanding. 

Our PE curriculum ensures skills are developed through the following topics: dance, invasion games, gymnastics, outdoor and adventurous activity, swimming, athletics, net and wall games and striking and fielding games. In addition to this, children must develop an understanding of a healthy lifestyle and make connections between physical health and a healthy mind, with the vision that children will continue to adopt a healthy lifestyle into their adult life.
