At Yatton Junior School, our Physical Education curriculum is highly ambitious and designed to inspire all pupils to achieve their full potential while developing a lifelong love of physical activity. Our intent aligns directly with the National Curriculum and is underpinned by our commitment to developing "The Yatton Learner."

• Breadth and Ambition for All: We ensure strict inclusivity, offering a challenging and balanced curriculum that is accessible to all pupils, regardless of their background or prior experience.

• Sequencing Knowledge: We systematically build physical literacy by embedding fundamental movement skills—such as running, jumping, throwing, catching, striking, and balancing—before progressing to complex, sport-specific tactical applications.

• Character Development: PE is a vital vehicle for personal development. We explicitly teach Collaboration through teamwork and fair play, Resilience and determination through competitive sports, and Responsibility through leadership opportunities. We foster Curiosity by providing a diverse curriculum that encourages pupils to discover new sports and passions.
