PE Intent

At Northfield Road, we are committed to ensuring that all children develop a lifelong love of physical activity and sport and understand the importance of leading an active, healthy lifestyle. Our PE curriculum is designed to be inclusive and progressive, enabling every pupil to succeed and thrive physically, socially and emotionally.

Through a broad and balanced curriculum, pupils build a secure foundation of fundamental movement skills, develop sport-specific techniques and gain the knowledge and understanding needed to make informed choices about their health and well-being.

We aim to inspire all pupils to engage in competitive and cooperative activities, fostering teamwork, resilience, fairness and respect. PE at Northfield Road nurtures self-belief, perseverance and confidence, empowering pupils to take pride in their achievements both individually and as part of a team. Beyond lessons, pupils are encouraged to participate in extracurricular clubs, inter-school competitions, and community sports, promoting lifelong participation and supporting their physical and mental well-being.
