The Physical Education programme at Beaudesert Park from Reception through to Year 8 is taught by P.E. specialists. They work closely with the Games department to ensure the all round sporting development of each child. Pupils will certainly go beyond National Curriculum allotted time and standards.
Our aims are for all pupils to gain confidence, to enjoy physical activity so it becomes a lifestyle choice, to learn to compete and so understand fair play. Great emphasis is placed on achieving the A, B, C’s (Agility, Balance and Co-ordination). This is achieved by offering appropriate, yet challenging lessons that are rich and varied each year.
Gymnastics, basketball, badminton, handball, lacrosse, multi-skill tasks, tennis and athletics are just some of the activities on offer which help enhance the all round physical development of children.
The facilities here provide our pupils with a wealth of opportunities.
