PE is taught to all year groups for a minimum of two hours per week. We work closely with ActivSports and local sports leaders to ensure we are delivering high quality PE lessons and sporting opportunities throughout the curriculum. We hold the Platinum award for school sport and have been recognised locally for this achievement, being one of the first Primary Schools in North Shropshire to achieve the Platinum Award Status.
Hodnet Primary School believes that Physical Education and sport have an essential role to play in a child’s physical, social, emotional and intellectual development. Our Physical Education curriculum aims to set the foundations for a life-long participation in sport through the provision of a broad and balanced curriculum which children of all abilities can enjoy. We aim to develop the fundamental skills and competence required to develop physical literacy and enable children to excel in a wide range of physical activities. Children will have the opportunity to challenge themselves by taking part in competitive and physically demanding activities, where effort and hard-work, as well as success, are celebrated. The Physical Education curriculum aims to provide all children with the opportunity to develop self-confidence and to manage themselves successfully in a range of situations, including opportunities for pupils to take on leadership roles in which they can further develop their skills and embed sporting values. Through our Physical Education curriculum we also aim to encourage children to understand the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle, to enable them to make informed choices about their own lifestyle.
PE Lead at Hodnet School is Miss Manton (Class 2 Teacher)
