🏃‍♀️ PE at Friday Bridge

At Friday Bridge, we believe that physical education is essential for developing healthy, active, and confident learners. We follow the Primary Steps in PE scheme, which provides a progressive and inclusive curriculum that supports all pupils in developing their physical skills, fitness, and love for movement.

Our PE curriculum is designed to inspire and engage children through a wide range of activities that promote teamwork, resilience, and personal achievement. From fundamental movement skills to competitive games and creative dance, every child is encouraged to challenge themselves and celebrate their progress.

🧠 What Makes Our PE Curriculum Special?

• Progressive and Inclusive: Carefully sequenced lessons ensure that all pupils build on prior learning and develop key physical competencies over time.
• Skill-Focused: Emphasis on agility, balance, coordination, and control across a variety of sports and activities.
• Health and Wellbeing: Pupils learn about the importance of physical activity, healthy lifestyles, and mental wellbeing.
• Teamwork and Leadership: Opportunities to collaborate, compete, and lead are embedded throughout the curriculum.
• Enjoyment and Engagement: Lessons are active, varied, and fun—helping every child to find joy in movement.

⚽ A Journey Through Physical Education

From learning to jump, throw, and catch in Key Stage 1 to developing tactics in team games and refining performance in dance and gymnastics in Key Stage 2, our pupils:

• Build confidence in their physical abilities
• Learn to work cooperatively and respectfully with others
• Develop resilience, determination, and a growth mindset
• Understand how to stay fit and healthy for life

At Friday Bridge, PE is more than just sport—it’s about building strong bodies, confident minds, and positive attitudes. With Primary Steps in PE, we’re helping every child enjoy being active and develop a lifelong love of physical activity.
