PE at Beaminster St. Mary’s

At Beaminster St.Mary’s, we intend to inspire all pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities, as well as give children the tools and understanding required to make a positive impact in their own health and well-being. We want all children to experience a wide variety of sports and physical skills which will enhance life-long fitness and life choices.

Our Physical Education will challenge and promote self-esteem through the development of physical confidence and problem-solving. We aim to teach children to cope with both success and failure in competitive, individual and team-based physical activities, allowing them to explore and express their personal and spiritual identity. Through our provision, children can flourish at sports in which they have a particular interest or flair for.

Children have equal opportunities to take part in a range of sports and physical activities within a challenging and supportive environment where effort, as well as success, is recognised. Children are encouraged to participate in exercise through-out the day during PE lessons, clubs, outdoor learning, outdoor play and competitive events.

All of our subjects include the same curriculum drivers, these are:
