At Wombridge Primary School, it is our aim to provide our children with a multitude of experiences in a vast range of physical activities. From Early Years, children receive two hours of high-quality PE lessons each week which teach them the fundamental skills required to kickstart a love, enjoyment and passion for physical activity that will travel with them through school and beyond.
In Key Stage One, children continue to develop their fundamental skills alongside the introduction of competitive and complex scenarios. Children begin to have opportunities to represent Wombridge Primary at inter-school events in a range of sports including cricket, athletics and football. In addition to this, we promote and demonstrate healthy lifestyle choices through eating, drinking and exercise.
As the children move through school into Key Stage Two, their fundamental skills are refined and opportunities are provided to demonstrate these in more competitive contexts. In lessons and through intra, inter-school competitions and extra-curricular activities, all children are given a platform to apply the skills which they have developed in their curriculum time. We are very passionate about providing all children with the chance to have many positive experiences during their physical education which will remain with them forever.
Within our consistent high-quality teaching, it is our aim to not only nurture their physical development, but help to shape happy, responsible, respectful, kind and honest individuals who are ready to be active in the wider world with a healthy body and a healthy mind.
We follow the Getset4PE lesson plans and schemes of work.

OUR SPORTS LEADERS
At Wombridge, we have our Sports Leaders as part of our PE provision, who regularly meet to discuss any ideas regarding physical education.
Sports Leaders apply at the start of each academic year by writing a letter of application stating why they think they would make an excellent candidate for the job and most importantly, why they want to be one!
Sports Leaders are trained to lead activities and games with children and are taught the important qualities that are needed when working with young people. Sports Leaders work with children during lunchtimes each week to lead games and ensure playtimes are inclusive for everyone and that no child is left alone with no one to play with.
This role develops important values such a patience, friendship, compassion, and kindness as well as building their confidence and communication skills throughout the year. It is also a Sports Leaders job to collect and store all of our play equipment safely at the end of each lunchtime. Being an Equipment Monitor is the first step into sports leadership and builds up key skills in responsibility, communication, cooperation and teamwork.
Sports leaders have an opportunity to share their own thoughts and opinions with the group and collectively agree on any decisions that are made. Sports Leaders help to organise and lead events such as Sports Day and give opinions on what they would like our PE and sport provision at Wombridge to offer in the future.
