Key Stage 2 P.E.
The PE department aims to provide all pupils with a broad and balanced curriculum. We offer each pupil an opportunity to experience invasion games such as Football, Netball, Tag Rugby and Hockey. Also included in our curriculum are: Creative sports gymnastics and dance, Striking and fielding games; Cricket and Rounders and also Net and wall games including Tennis.
All year 5 pupils attend a six week swimming course catering for the needs of each individual in relation to their ability. Those pupils in year 6 who have not yet met the expected level of attainment in swimming are provided with the opportunity to do so with an intense Top-up Swimming programme during the summer term. |   |

| As a department we aim to provide High Quality PE lessons throughout all activity areas. We involve external coaches and outside agencies to facilitate the learning of pupils during both curriculum time and after school. We have developed strong community club links in and around Bromsgrove, for example with Worcester Warriors RFC due to our strong partnership; we have established exit routes for pupils identified as gifted and talented. Parkside is also part of the North Worcestershire Schools Sports Partnership and as a result we have a designated School Sports Co-ordinator. The role of the Co-ordinator is to; liaise with Primary Link Teachers from first schools within the cluster and high School. We aim to ensure PE and school sport is central to the curriculum as well as the social and physical development of young people. This is achieved through participation in various festivals, events and competitions throughout the school year, also facilitating schemes such as the young sports leader award and playground to podium. |
