PE
The PE Faculty at St James’ encourage all individuals to realise their potential through their participation, performance and success in a variety of sporting activities. This is underpinned through demonstrating resilience, leadership, teamwork, fair play and moral etiquette, regardless of victory or defeat. We strive to develop global Catholic citizens who are inspired to have a lifelong interest in sport and exercise. The promotion of a healthy active lifestyle is at the heart of all we do, in which the school values of family, faith and excellence are incorporated throughout.
The Physical Education department aims to build global Catholic citizens by providing all children with a positive experience within their PE lessons and extra-curricular activities. We aim to encourage a lifelong interest in sport and we strive to ensure that each and every pupil has the opportunity to develop physically, socially and morally through physical activity and games.
We have a high-quality PE curriculum which enables all pupils to enjoy and succeed in many kinds of physical activity; they develop a wide range of skills and the ability to use tactics, strategies and compositional ideas to perform successfully. When they are performing, the pupils analyse the situation using their knowledge and understanding of the sporting discipline, and make informed decisions. They also reflect on their own and others’ performances and find ways to improve them. As a result, the children develop the confidence to take part in different physical activities and learn about the value of healthy, active lifestyles. Discovering what they like to do, what their aptitudes are at school, and how and where to get involved in physical activity helps them make informed choices about lifelong participation.
