Physical Education curriculum

Intent for TVED PE

The aim of our PE programme is to develop children’s basic physical competencies, build confidence in their ability and build the foundations for a lifelong love of sport, physical activity and a healthy lifestyle. We aim to develop the knowledge, skills and capabilities necessary for mental, emotional, social and physical well-being in our children now and for their future. Physical fitness is an important factor. It teaches self-discipline and that to be successful you must work hard, cooperate, collaborate and demonstrate resilience. For reference, take a look at the Department or Education PE curriculum guidance here.
