PE at Yeading Infant and Nursery School
Intent
Our school's physical education curriculum aligns with the national curriculum's key objectives. We aim to equip our students with fundamental movement skills, fostering competence, confidence, and collaboration in activities that enhance agility, balance, and coordination. Our focus extends beyond the classroom, promoting sustained physical activity, both competitive and cooperative. Our ultimate intent is to inspire a lifelong commitment to being healthy, active living, ensuring our pupils lead well-rounded lives founded on fitness, teamwork, and resilience.

Impact
Children leave Yeading Infant and Nursery School having a love for sport and physical activity both in and out of school, with this continuing into later life. Children will have worked on their own aspirations in relation to PE and this will be carried on after leaving KS1, with children continuing to participate for enjoyment or competitively. All children should be able to discuss the importance of a healthy lifestyle and how this can be achieved as well as develop skills that underpin life such as teamwork, sportsmanship, self-motivation, resilience and independence.
