Physical Education

Woolpit Primary Academy pupils doing PE

Our PE curriculum is designed to give children a broad range of experiences. We want them to take part in competitive sports, work as part of a team and learn how to win and lose with good sportsmanship. Alongside this, we place a strong emphasis on healthy lifestyles, a balanced diet and a positive growth mindset, helping children to keep going even when activities feel challenging.

We also believe that leadership matters. During lessons, children are given opportunities to lead activities and take responsibility, which helps them to develop communication, teamwork and respect for rules.

In Year 5, children also have the opportunity to attend swimming lessons at the Mid-Suffolk Leisure Centre. This is an important part of our PE offer and helps children build water confidence and swimming skills.

Through all of these opportunities, we aim to support children in becoming active, capable and well-rounded individuals.
