Physical Education

Subject Intent

At Manor Oak, the Physical Education curriculum is core to children’s health, wellbeing and resilience. Physical education provides opportunities for children to be competitive, cooperative and inclusive. As well as this, they learn the importance of strenuous activity in developing strong healthy bodies and how to work together in pairs, small groups and teams.

Through Physical Education we are able to highlight the importance of inclusivity, team work and co-operation , as well as building the children’s confidence and self-belief. Here at Manor Oak, we believe that Physical Education is not only key to improving the children’s physical health, but is key to enhancing their mental wellbeing, particularly following the recent National Lockdowns.​
