PE aims to develop children's physical skills in an enjoyable way, as well as encouraging them to maintain a healthy lifestyle through exercise. Teaching focuses upon:

· Dance, where children learn to move rhythmically and expressively, and gain experience of dance from other cultures.

· Gymnastics, where they develop their ability to perform and link together movements, shapes and balances, both on the floor and using apparatus.

· Games, where they play and invent games to score points or goals, either on their own or in small teams.

· Athletics, which includes running, jumping and throwing

· Swimming. Children attend swimming lessons in year 4.
