At Camps Hill, our intent is that every child has the opportunity to learn, move and grow through a high‑quality Physical Education curriculum. We aim to inspire all pupils to lead active, healthy lives and to develop the physical competence, confidence and enjoyment required to participate in a wide range of sports and physical activities.

Our PE curriculum is taught through a spiral, progressive approach, ensuring that skills are revisited, deepened and applied as children move through the school.

In the Early Years, pupils focus on developing core gross motor skills through engaging activities aligned with the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. These early experiences lay secure foundations for future learning.

In Key Stage 1, children broaden their range of fundamental movement skills, developing balance, coordination, agility and basic techniques that prepare them for increasingly structured sporting activities. By Key Stage 2, pupils refine and apply these skills within more complex games, sports and competitive situations, building resilience, teamwork and tactical awareness.

A key principle of our curriculum is that children are physically active for most of each lesson. We recognise the importance of regular movement for improving physical health, mental wellbeing and overall fitness, and we promote positive attitudes towards lifelong participation in physical activity.

Our aim is for all pupils to leave Camps Hill with the skills, knowledge and motivation to continue being active, confident and healthy individuals both in and beyond their primary school years.
