I am Mrs Sherlock and I am the subject lead for Physical Education (PE).

At Bridge Hall we have a wide and varied approach to PE. The curriculum is taught according to the guidelines of the 2014 National Curriculum, inspiring pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically demanding activities.

Through PE there will be opportunities to become physically confident in a way that supports health and fitness. These opportunities build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.

As a school we support staff curriculum development by accessing SHAPEs PE package which allows staff to work with a PE specialist to develop our Staff's understanding, knowledge and skills. Throughout the year the school access other sporting opportunities, delivered by sports specialists, to inspire and broaden the pupil’s knowledge of sport and physical activity.

The teaching sequence in each year group follow a progressive approach and allow for a cross-curricular approach for planning and embedding knowledge and skills.
