Curriculum Intent
At Vandyke Upper School, we aim to encourage participation, engagement and interest in a wide variety of activities. Our aim is to provide the opportunity for students to pursue life-long healthy, active lifestyles.
We offer a high-quality physical education curriculum programme that inspires all students to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities. We provide opportunities for all to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. We provide opportunities to compete in sport and other activities that build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.
We aim to develop competence to excel in a broad range of physical activities, for students to be physically active for sustained periods of time, and provide opportunities to engage in competitive sports and activities in both the curriculum and through extra-curricular opportunity. Most importantly we promote healthy, active lifestyles for lifelong learning that goes well beyond the National Curriculum.
