HAMPSTHWAITE CURRICULUM INTENT

Education at Hampsthwaite is based on the National Curriculum. Learning is sequenced in a way that ensures progression and the development of key knowledge and skills – embedding these within the children’s long term memory. We strive to ensure that our children’s creativity, interests and talents are nurtured so that they will be able to ‘Enjoy, Achieve and Flourish’ during their time with us.

HAMPSTHWAITE PRIMARY SCHOOL - PHYSICAL EDUCATION INTENT

At Hampsthwaite we want to provide a wealth of opportunities for children to lead healthy active lives, which inspires all, through a high quality creative curriculum that builds on the core skills of developing agility, balance and co-ordination. 

It also enables children to develop self-belief through healthy competition and cultivate respect through cooperative learning, as well as building lasting friendships.  We endeavour to provide an extensive range of extra-curricular activities that will allow children to experience new types of sports. 

PE is well embedded throughout the whole school, where it is inclusive to all children, it provides challenge and support to enable children to feel empowered to branch out and make good progress. We also support children that have an affinity to a specific sport, sign posting them to groups outside of school as well as challenging them to develop within the school setting. 

We believe that by giving every child the physical literacy, emotional and thinking skills to enable them to achieve in PE, sport and life, it will enable them to have secure foundations from which to build and develop. 

This believes that each and every child should enjoy physical activity, know how to improve and reach their full potential. 

Not only do we develop the child at Hampsthwaite, but we also support and guide our staff ensuring they have the skills and knowledge to deliver and lead exciting, stimulating activities that build on the fundamentals.
