All children at Uplands receive 2 hours of Physical Education a week. During their time at Uplands, they will learn to develop the fundamental skills required to participate a wide range of physical activities and sports. During the four years they will cover the following topics: Athletics, Dance, Games (Invasion, Net & Wall and Striking & Fielding), Gymnastics, Outdoor Adventure Activities (OAA) and Swimming (in year 4).
We offer a wide range of extracurricular clubs (Before, at Lunch and After School) which children are welcome to attend. We are also part of the Sports Partnership and regularly compete in School Games competitions.
Physical education is an essential part of the national curriculum. Not only does it improve the physical skills, but it also helps to develop them emotionally, intellectually and socially. We aim to develop their fundamental and life skills, knowledge of rules and tactics and increase their knowledge about how their bodies work.
To utilise the time, which is allocated to PE, children may come to school already changed in the CORRECT PE kit. If they are unable to wear correct kit, a note should be brought in and given to Mrs Wood or their class teacher.
