What is the vision & purpose of PE?

Diamond 9 activity

Devil’s advocate: PE has no purpose! At the moment, assuming a student has 2

hours of physical education every year from Year 1 to Year 11… they will have received over 1000 hours by the time they leave school.

“That time could be much better devoted to eBacc subjects of value that contribute to exam results, league tables & achievement of students.”

So what next……?

Albert Einstein“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”

ACTION PLAN: ExampleWhere are you now?

- Marginalised in PE- Heavy focus on examination PE- Heavy focus on fixtures & the trophy cabinet for school PR…. But stretched in terms of capacity to deliver- issues around students physical, emotional & social health & wellbeing

Where do you want to be?

-A fundamental aspect of whole school improvement- Having a clear & shared vision & purpose that is owned by PE team, senior leaders & students- able to prove the correlation between high levels of physical activity, health & wellbeing and attainment
