1. What are the key points of the National Curriculum for P.E?

# data[].attributes.body
The national curriculum for physical education aims to ensure that all pupils:

§ develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities

§ are physically active for sustained periods of time

§ engage in competitive sports and activities

§ lead healthy, active lives.

Different exercises for each scene of the book. This includes: leaping like frogs through the grass, running as fast as you can on the spot through the forest, hoping on opposite legs through the mud and crawling on a bench through the narrow cave. I would do the exercise with the children and then we would all go on the bear hunt together. During each part they would catch and throw a ball or have another task to do to 'stay warm'.

Children and young people should engage in physical activity for an average of at least 60 minutes per day across the week. This can include all forms of activity such as physical education, active travel, after-school activities, play and sports.

• Children and young people should engage in a variety of types and intensities of physical activity across the week to develop movement skills, muscular fitness, and bone strength.

• Children and young people should aim to minimise the amount of time spent being stationary, and when physically possible should break up long periods of not moving with at least light physical activity.

How can break times be made more active for all children?

Provide equipment such as skipping ropes, hula hoops, basketball net, football and space to set these out. Even having hopscotch and a running track.

Set a goal for the children each day – aim at break time is to run or walk 2 laps of the playground so it can be added to daily mile? Something like this?

14/09/15 Download the new poster: 'The Difference PE & School Sport Makes to Whole School Improvement'
Two years ago afPE created a poster which illustrated the contribution of physical education to whole school improvement. Teachers found this to be an invaluable tool and in line with the latest Ofsted Inspection Framework we have reviewed and updated the poster.

We have taken as the central focus the expected outcomes that Ofsted look for, but highlighted the crucial roles that Leadership and Management play in achieving these. The latter are the foundation of high quality physical education and school sport and good or better leadership and management drives and embeds improvement through developing a broad and balanced curriculum and ensuring that inclusive teaching, learning and assessment are also good or better. These are the main contributory factors to high achievement.

Personal Development, Behaviour and Welfare are also contributory factors but these are also two way and young people who make progress and achieve also feel good about themselves and behave well.

The wider outcomes in the oval boxes illustrate some of the impact that high quality physical education and school sport has on young people which contributes greatly to whole school improvement.

The feedback about our first poster from Head teachers and subject leaders of PE has been incredible. Not least because we believe it really does show that physical education is at the heart of whole school improvement and that subject leaders and heads of physical education departments should be paid more for leading a subject that contributes so much to areas such as SMSC and British Citizenship.

One primary Head teacher has taken the content out of the outside people circles and asked all other subject leads to fill in these with what their subject contributes to whole school improvement, so as to get a wider picture.

8. What is School Games? How can you and your pupils benefit from being involved?

# data[].attributes.body
The School Games consists of four unique types of competition:

Intra-School Competition

Local Inter-School Competition

County Final

School Games National Finals

The School Games, which is funded by Sport England National Lottery funding and delivered by the Youth Sport Trust, is a government led programme designed to deliver competitive school sport to all young people.

·         The School Games is inclusive to all young people and provides opportunities for everyone to get involved, either within school, against other local schools, or at county or regional level. The type of competition will determine how best to go about getting involved - either as a potential participant, a school group or team, or as an organiser or volunteer. Some events will also act as pathway events to further competition in the future.

·         Community spirit

·         Benefits for future competitive sport

·         Work as a team to achieve

·         Benefits for the school status - make your school proud.

Here is an example:
Motty's Instructions

1. Each child should be given a bingo board/answer sheet (see resources) and a pencil.

It may be beneficial to pair up weaker players with an adult or learning buddy.

1. The bingo cards/question cards (see resources) should be placed around the playing area or stuck with Blu Tack to the wall.

Children will move around the learning space, calculating the number sentences listed on the bingo cards.

1. As they calculate each one, children should find the answer on their bingo board and record it in the right place.

2. To increase the pace of the game, why not give a time limit for game completion or award points for players based on their speed and accuracy?

Extension:

As an extension activity, why not have spare blank bingo cards available for early finishers to write their own number sentences?

§  Competition

§  Use outdoor space

§  Movement around the classroom

11. What is the difference between physical exercise and physical activity?

# data[].attributes.body
School physical education programs offer the best opportunity to provide physical activity to all children and to teach them the skills and knowledge needed to establish and sustain an active lifestyle. Physical education teachers assess student knowledge, motor and social skills, and provide instruction in a safe, supportive environment.
Physical activity is bodily movement of any type and may include recreational, fitness and sport activities such as jumping rope, playing soccer, lifting weights, as well as daily activities such as walking to the store, taking the stairs or raking the leaves. Similar health benefits to those received during a physical education class are possible during physical activity bouts when the participant is active at an intensity that increases heart rate and produces heavier than normal breathing.

The aim of competition is not to exclude anyone but to try get people involved and motivated to challenge themselves and set goals to win. In my opinion it can be used to help excite children in sport.

This link goes to sportsability and the website is dedicated to  inclusive sports and shows ways in which you can include all children in sport and examples of good practice in a wide range of sporting activities. The aim is to provide ways to help everyone achieve and compete and have the same opportuities in school sport.

Children are encouraged to also  learn British values within PE in school, this includes:

an understanding of how citizens can influence decision-making through the democratic process

an understanding that the freedom to hold other faiths and beliefs is protected in law

an acceptance that people having different faiths or beliefs to oneself (or having none) should be accepted and tolerated, and should not be the cause of prejudicial or discriminatory behaviour

an understanding of the importance of identifying and combatting discrimination

There are additionally ways we can do this:
