The purpose of the Physical Education curriculum at Brook Mead is to inspire all pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically demanding activities. It provides opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness, and to recognise the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle which continues into adulthood. There are extensive opportunities to compete in sport and other activities that help to build character and to embed the values such as fairness and respect. The curriculum aims to ensure that all pupils develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities and are physically active for sustained periods of time so that they develop a love of sport and a clear understanding of the need to continue to be active into adulthood.
