Delves Junior School is an official partner with Beyond the Physical and we utilise their physical literacy-informed and mastery-based PE Scheme of work to teach transformational PE to our children.
By creating children who are Masterful Movers, Skilful Solvers and Confident Connectors we ensure every child has a purposeful, meaningful and holistic PE journey during their school years to embed a positive experience of physical activity for life.
Here are some examples of the learning themes taught:
As well as their class Physical Education lessons, children also have additional skills sessions in groups of 15 as part of the enrichment day every two weeks. In Year 3 and Year 4, children have additional dance sessions too.
As a school, we are committed to providing as many children as possible with opportunities to take part in competitive sport. We are part of the School Games Programme which is organised by Streetly Academy for Walsall Primary Schools.
The events are split across 3 categories:
Inspire- Events aimed at students who may not be the most engaged in physical activity, come and learn/practise new skills.
Engage- Events aimed at students who wouldn't normally represent your school, focus on taking part non competitive.
Competition- Traditional Sporting events for students who enjoy the competition of trying to win.
Here are some photos of our children taking part in PE lessons and in some of these extra-curricular events:
