Shaftesbury High School

GCSE/Curriculum PE

At Shaftesbury High School we strive to inspire our students through fun and engaging PE lessons that are enjoyable, challenging and accessible to all. We recognise the importance of PE and the role it has to play in promoting long term healthy lifestyles and making a positive impact on physical, mental and social health. The curriculum will encourage pupils to challenge themselves and develop effective learning behaviours such as resilience and independence. Students will become physically confident in a way that supports their health and fitness through a range of physically demanding sports or activities to enable them to lead a healthy active lifestyle. They will have the opportunities to succeed and excel during a high-quality curriculum and engage in competitive sports and activities. Core focus is on component knowledge of how to complete specific movements which have links across the whole curriculum.

GCSE PE follows the AQA specification, which can be foun belo and a link to the exam board materials can be found here
