About this curriculum

Cockington Primary School believes that Physical Education (PE), experienced in a safe and supportive environment, is essential to ensure children attain optimum physical and emotional development and good health.

We intend to deliver high-quality teaching and learning opportunities that inspire all children to succeed in physical education and in developing life skills. We want to teach children skills to keep them safe: such as being able to swim.  We also want to teach children how to cooperate and collaborate with others as part of an effective team, understanding fairness and equity of play to embed life-long values.

Our curriculum aims to improve the wellbeing and fitness of all children at Cockington, not only through the sporting skills taught, but through the underpinning values and disciplines PE promotes.

Sequential Curriculum

PE strands with declarative and procedural knowledge that deepens and broadens progressively each year through sport and fitness:

  • Body management
  • Locomotor control
  • Object control
  • Health and fair play
  • Evaluating and improving performance

Rudolph Run update! Debbie from Rowcroft came in last week to say a massive thank you for the money we raised during our Rudolph Runs. She told us about the many jobs at Rowcroft, and what the money that is raised goes towards. Children enjoyed representing the roles in the assembly. Well done and thank you for your donations!

During our World Book Day, all of the children used their ‘Creative Colin’ school value to design an amazing reading space. We look forward to using some of their fabulous ideas to improve and develop our reading areas at Cockington. Here are the designs of our finalists. A child from KS1 and a child from KS2 both received a book voucher for their imaginative designs.
