PE KS1 & 2
The rolling programme is constructed using the QCA units of study to ensure content delivery and progression. Please
refer to the planning formats for information of how these units will be adapted by teachers to develop medium term
plans. Although the expectations are taken from QCA units the planning may differ to ensure it is differentiated
appropriately to meet the needs of the children at Maplefields School
The rolling programme is split into two cycles to accommodate the specific class groupings in the primary phase. This
will ensure that children will have access to the full programme as they move through the school even if they remain in
the same class for more than one year.
Aims and purposes of PE
PE offers opportunities for children to:
become skilful and intelligent performers;
acquire and develop skills, performing with increasing physical competence and confidence, in a
range of physical activities and contexts;
learn how to select and apply skills, tactics and compositional ideas to suit activities that need
different approaches and ways of thinking;
develop their ideas in a creative way;
set targets for themselves and compete against others, individually and as team members;
understand what it takes to persevere, succeed and acknowledge others' success;
respond to a variety of challenges in a range of physical contexts and environments;
take the initiative, lead activity and focus on improving aspects of their own performance;
discover their own aptitudes and preferences for different activities;
make informed decisions about the importance of exercise in their lives;
develop positive attitudes to participation in physical activity.
Focused Curriculum Days
Children enjoy being active and using their creativity and
imagination in physical activity. They learn new skills, find out how
to use them in different ways, and link them to make actions,
phrases and sequences of movement. They enjoy
communicating, collaborating and competing with each other.
They develop an understanding of how to succeed in different
activities and learn how to evaluate and recognise their own
success
a
Ongoing skills development
Children build on their natural enthusiasm for movement, using it to
explore and learn about their world. They start to play and work with
other children in pairs and small groups. By watching, listening and
experimenting with movement and ideas, they develop their skills in
movement and their coordination, and enjoy expressing and testing
themselves in a variety of situations.

Aims and purposes of PE
PE develops pupils’ competence and confidence to take part in a range of physical activities that
become a central part of their lives, both in and out of school.
A high-quality PE curriculum enables all pupils to enjoy and succeed in many kinds of physical
activity. They develop a wide range of skills and the ability to use tactics, strategies and
compositional ideas to perform successfully. When they are performing, they think about what they
are doing, analyse the situation and make decisions. They also reflect on their own and others’
performances and find ways to improve them. As a result, they develop the confidence to take part
in different physical activities and learn about the value of healthy, active lifestyles. Discovering what
they like to do, what their aptitudes are at school, and how and where to get involved in physical
activity helps them make informed choices about lifelong physical activity.
PE helps pupils develop personally and socially. They work as individuals, in groups and in teams,
developing concepts of fairness and of personal and social responsibility. They take on different
roles and responsibilities, including leadership, coaching and officiating. Through the range of
experiences that PE offers, they learn how to be effective in competitive, creative and challenging
situations.
Ongoing Skills
Developing skills in physical activity;
making and applying decisions; developing
physical and mentalacapacity; evaluating
and improving; making informed choices
about healthy, active lifestyles.
