Physical Education

PE at Grange Primary Academy plays a vital part of everyday school life.  Our missionl is to educate minds, develop healthy bodies, and promote positive, life long attitudes towards physical activity, fitness, and sports skills. We provide a quality and comprehensive physical education curriculum delivered by our highly professional and skilled coach. Our Physical Education curriculum provides every child with the knowledge and skills necessary to make lifestyle choices that directly impact their health and well-being.

We provide children with a wide range of opportunities, not just to participate and learn new skills within intra-school competitions, but also in inter-school competitions. These competitions allow the children to compete and test themselves against other primary schools in a wide range of physical activities for KS1 and KS2 children                                                                                   

Alongside the PE Curriculum the children have the opportunity to participate in arange of sporting clubs and teams through our strong relationship with the Kettering Schools Sports Partnership.

As part of our mission to develop positive life long attitudes, we provide a wide range of after school activity provision for all ages. Children can participate in activities including: Football, Netball, Basketball, Tag Rugby, Multi-Sports,  Dance and Gymnastics.  Participation for all clubs is closely monitored, and specific needs are targeted so that all children have the opportunity to take part in a wide range of physical activities

Fun, enjoyment, confidence, competence and self esteem are the forefront of our PE delivery.  Children in Reception and KS1 and KS2 develop the fundamental skills such as aiming and throwing, balance, co-ordination, control, and movement.

We recognise that PE and school sport is a key area in which social and personal skills are taught and learnt.
