Physical Education
Children are taught two hours of PE weekly. In these lessons, pupils are taught essential skills and are then given the opportunity to apply these in a range of games, such as football, tag rugby, basketball, tennis and cricket. The teaching of PE also looks at other physical activities, including OAA (Outdoor Adventurous Activities), gymnastics, athletics and dance. During their time at Queen’s Park Academy, children are also taught swimming, in line with National Curriculum expectations. Breaktimes and lunchtimes also offer a range of adult-led, September 2024 structured, active games for children to choose from, including basketball, football, and activities supported by our Sports Ambassadors and Friendship Ambassadors.
