School Vision: Excellence in learning – Investment in Oracy – Strength in Inclusivity

We believe that every child should have the opportunity to enjoy being active and develop a lifelong love of movement. Our PE curriculum is designed to develop children's physical competence, confidence and understanding of healthy lifestyles. Through a broad range of individual and team activities, children develop their physical skills while learning important values such as teamwork, resilience, respect, determination and sportsmanship. At Laurel Lane, we want every child to find ways of being active that they enjoy and feel confident participating in, both within school and beyond.

PE lessons are delivered by Primary Sporting Development specialised coaches.

An introduction from Mrs Rowden, Laurel Lane's PE Subject Leader 

Leading PE allows me to ensure that every child has the opportunity to enjoy being active, develop their physical skills and discover the benefits of a healthy and active lifestyle. We believe that PE is about more than competition. While we celebrate children's achievements and encourage them to participate in competitive opportunities, we also want every child to understand the importance of being active, looking after their body and enjoying movement. We aim to create positive experiences that encourage children to remain active both in and outside of school.

By the time our pupils leave Laurel Lane, we hope they will be physically literate, confident and enthusiastic, with a strong understanding of how physical activity contributes to a healthy and happy lifestyle.
