Physical Education
West Byfleet Infant School is proud to be a real legacy school and is striving to create a new ambition for every child. Our intent is that every child is at the centre of their learning, by having opportunities to grow as individuals, learners and part of a team. By ensuring that our PE lessons are centred around the child, they allow the development of fundamental movement skills and positive learning behaviours to enable children to be successful in the classroom and in later life.
We promote the ability to develop the children’s personal, social, cognitive, creative skills, health and fitness and have the opportunity to apply their physical skills through the use of the learning cogs. Our approach focuses on the development of agility, balance and coordination, healthy competition and cooperative learning through a unique approach to teaching and learning in PE. This approach intrinsically motivates every child to take risks, challenge themselves and know that the sky is the limit for what they can achieve. The learners become independent, self aware, resilient and develop a want to always improve. It promotes a positive learning environment whereby the children are confident and are able to build their own self-esteem within their learning.
