PE

  • Intent

    At Dersingham Primary School, Physical Education is an integral part of our curriculum and we strive to create a culture which aims to inspire an active generation to enjoy PE, encourage each other and achieve. We provide a safe and supportive environment for children to flourish in a range of different physical activities which is essential in supporting their physical, emotional, spiritual, social and moral development. We aspire for children to adopt a positive Growth mindset and believe that anything can be achieved with determination and resilience. At Dersingham we offer a dynamic and varied program of activity to ensure that all children progress physically through a unique and fully inclusive PE curriculum. Our curriculum aims to improve the well-being and fitness of all children, not only through the sporting skills taught, but through the underpinning values and disciplines PE promotes. We aim to deliver high quality teaching and learning opportunities that enable all children to achieve their personal best.

  • Implementation

    PE at Dersingham provides challenging and enjoyable learning through a range of sporting activities including invasion games, net & wall games, striking and fielding games, gymnastics, dance, health and fitness, outdoor and adventure and swimming.

    Complete PE is our chosen support tool of work. Complete PE offers a clear physical and physical literacy skills progression that can be adapted to individuals and class needs. Using Complete PE as our main scheme ensures that we have a clear progression within units across the whole school and can track progress for both physical skills and physical literacy.

  • Impact

    Children at Dersingham are encouraged to exercise throughout the day, during PE lessons, clubs and during play and lunchtimes.

    Mid-day meal supervisors have been on a course on how to encourage involvement in activities during playtime.

    There are a wide range of after school cubs available to all children, this includes multi-skill training, through to badminton. These clubs are all delivered by our teachers.

    Children have the ability to remain active for sustained amounts of time due to our improved curriculum. Our children learn positive values and disciplines which will help them become successful in creating a lifestyle which leads them to live happy and healthy lives.

Commonwealth Games Festival

At Dersingham we ensure that children are exposed to high quality/standard PE curriculum that allows them to shine and parade their skills set in a range of different sports. This academic year, we were really fortunate as since the recent covid restrictions we had not been able to take part in many sporting activities, competitions and events. We were lucky enough to get our year 5 students on a 2-week intense swimming course at the Stratford Aquatics centre. We also brought in a yoga and mindfulness specialist that worked with our ks1 and 2 students on a weekly basis. We felt this was important as it would help the children with their flexibility, mental health and well-being, co-ordination and balance. At Dersingham we have encouraged that student's be more active which led us to also draft in a dance teacher from Freshly squeezed dance who has taught a variety of different classes specialized in dance to our students throughout the whole school helping develop our pupil's co-ordination, balance and rhythm. Dersingham have also hosted and taken part in many competitions with other schools in the Newham Borough such as: Hot potato competition (which Dersingham Primary school hosted), Football competitions, Multi sports competitions and most recently Newham's very own Commonwealth Games Festival which included sports such as Badminton/ Hockey/ tag rugby and para-Olympics (SEND)
