Our vision for Physical Education at All Saints Academy
The PE department's vision is to inspire all students to want to participate in life long physical activity. This is achieved by delivering a curriculum with depth and breadth, allowing students to obtain a variety of experiences. While harnessing the students enthusiasm the PE department provides students with a comfortable learning environment where they are prepared to push themselves out of their comfort zone, allowing them to achieve more both physically and mentally. Our aim to ensure students understand the importance that participating in sport and physical activity plays in not only being physically fit, but socially and emotionally as well. All students are given opportunities to develop valuable character traits that will benefit them, not only in PE, but across the curriculum and beyond.
How we will achieve this
In PE students will work on skills needed to play a range of sporting activities competitively but will be assessed through three different stands: 1. Performance (Practical ability in each sport/activity) 2. Knowledge and understanding (anatomy, and physiology Y7, components of fitness and sporting values Y8, and principles of training, methods of training and sporting values Y9) as well as the rules and regulations and tactical play of each sport. 3. Interacting (incorporating the learner dispositions, healthy behaviours, leadership, and life skills). Students will use these skills to improve their learning across the curriculum and beyond.

Sport Studies Information
In OCR Nationals Sports Studies students complete 3 units across the programme, which allows a mixture of practical and theory lessons. R185 looks at Performance and leadership in sports activities. R186 looks at Sport and the media and how it influenced. R184 looks at contemporary issues in sport. Focusing on issues that impact sports participation, promoting sporting values, implications of hosting a major sporting event, and the role that National Governing Bodies play in sports development.
Reading Journal
As part of our whole school initiative to encourage students to read more, we have created a Reading journal for the PE department to provide students with inspirational stories about a number of different characters who have embarked on personal journeys with a sporting activity at the core of the story.
What is the impact of our work?
Throughout PE students will become more resilience, more independent and confident leaders, which will transfer across the curriculum throughout the academy. Students will engage in sports participation during lessons and have the opportunity to participate in sports outside of curriculum time, showing developed skills, knowledge of rules and regulations and tactical application.

Sport Prefect
Hi, my name is Katie I am currently the Senior Sports Prefect at All Saints Academy. Since being at the academy, I have always aspired to be a sport prefect as I love sport and want to develop my leadership skills whilst inspiring the younger students.
My role as sports prefect, is to encourage students within the academy to participate in sport and make sure that students step out of there comfort zone and try new sports that they wouldn’t usually participate in. My aim as the sports prefect is to develop a safe and welcoming environment where students feel confident and excited to participate in sport and develop their skills.
During the school year, I will work closely with my sports captain team to organise and host events and competitions in a variety of different sports for the students to participate in. I am really looking forward to this school year in sport as there will be lots of big things coming up.
