Physical Education (PE)

Physical Education is a subject that we regard highly at Chester-le-Street CE Primary school. We ensure that our pupils are able to access high quality physical education and sport opportunities which prepare them well for their future health and well-being.

Children are encouraged to achieve their personal best at all times and are challenged and encouraged to succeed and excel in physical education and school sport.

All children have the opportunity to attend a festival or competition to learn new skills, gain experience and compete in sport.

Children also compete in intra-house competitions within school to build respect, healthy competition, honesty, passion, team work and determination.

Our success in competitions is fantastic! Each year group is able to partake in the Durham School Sports Partnership festivals and events throughout the year.

Our focus this academic year is to develop active playtimes and our children are really enjoying using the new trim trail and the playtime equipment.

Our PE Leaders from Y6 are able to run sessions on a lunchtime developing their leadership skills.

We ensure our children have a varied, inclusive and exciting PE curriculum. The PE curriculum outline explains the different areas of PE that are taught.
