PE Intent

At St Teresa's, we believe that physical education, experienced in a safe and supportive environment, is vital and unique in its contribution to a child’s physical and emotional development and health. The physical education curriculum we offer aims to provide for pupils’ increasing self- confidence through an ability to manage themselves successfully in a variety of situations. A balance of individual, team, co-operative and competitive activities aims to cater for individual pupil’s needs and abilities.

We aim to use varied and flexible teaching styles and endeavour to provide appropriate, stimulating, challenging and enjoyable learning situations for all pupils.We want to promote an understanding of the many benefits of exercise, through a balanced range of relevant activities. At St Teresa's we consider physical education as a vehicle to facilitate access to cross-curricular themes, skills and dimensions, rather than a subject concerned exclusively with the acquisition of motor skills and techniques.
