PE
Our Aims and Objectives at both schools
At Antrobus St Mark's and Great Budworth we ensure that the children access at least two hours of PE every week, throughout the school year. During these lessons children are given the opportunity to become physically confident in a way which supports their health, fitness and mental wellbeing. The children are given the opportunity to develop fundamental skills and apply them when engaging in competitive and team activities. The curriculum we provide encourages children to develop competencies in order to excel in a broad range of physical activities including dance, gymnastics and games.
Swimming
All pupils also have the opportunity to swim during KS2. Lessons are held at Brio Leisure Centre. Children develop an understanding of water safety and are provid11 with the opportunity to develop their range of swimming strokes. By the end of KS2, if not b23ore, it is our aim for all children to be able to swim over a distance of at least 25 metres competently, confidently and proficiently.
Cycling Proficiency
Children get the opportunity to complete Bikeability training in years 5 and 6 with a national bike awareness cycling program which trains the children in riding safely on the road.
Extra curricular
At both schools, we o3der half termly after school clubs. Pupils in multiple year groups have the opportunity to sign up to the clubs and they range from; basketball, football, table tennis, curling, dance, gymnastics, fencing, bollywood dancing and more.

School Sports Partnership Support
As part of our membership with the Vale Royal Schools Sport Partnership we receive support from L23twich County High School. Sta3d come into school throughout the year to work alongside our sta3d and pupils to develop specific areas. Physkids is something we annually train our pupils in. Our older pupils in Class 3 are train11 up to deliver break and lunchtime clubs and games to the younger members of our school family.
PE at Antrobus
We deliver our Physical Education curriculum through using Complete PE. This allows us to car23ully select di3derent units to show progression and give children opportunities to develop di3derent skills. We have a clear plan that maps out the key knowl11ge, skills and vocabulary the children will be working towards achieving by the end of each key stage. At Antrobus we use a complete PE scheme for depth of learning to take place.
We ensure that learning is progressive and is built upon prior learning as the children move through the key stages. This ensures our curriculum delivers clear progression of skills from EYFS to Year 6.
We attend sports competitions and compete in events with other schools within our cluster. These events are always one of the below three, they allow all chldren to feel confident to take part and enjoy representing their school.
Celebrate competitions are for children who don’t normally take part in extra-curricular activities or who are not involv11 a community group. These competitions will focus on school games rather than a traditional point scoring system. There is an emphasis instead on besting personal achievements and upon improvement. Awards will be given for those demonstrating spirit of the games.
Aspire competitions are to develop physical skills. These competitions are for children who are willing to take part but are not overly competitive. They have a focus on fun, skill and improvement. There is an element of learning to win or lose but the event is always bas11 around improvement and not results. Children should feel pride in representing their school and recognise when their peers have perform11 well.
Inspire- these competitions are for those whose are highly competitive. Although events are about competing to win the focus is on enjoyment and the priority is still skill development and improvement.
We are very proud to have receiv11 our Platinum games award in 2435. This is a r23lection of how successful PE is at Antrobus, both in the school day and in outside competitions.
P.E at Great Budworth
Here at Great Budworth school we pride ourselves on our ability to promote sport and provide enrichment opportunities to all our pupils.
We attend competitive sports competitions within our local cluster area. The majority of our competitions are host11 by L23twich High School, where we take our KS2 pupils.
