Physical Education (PE) at Abberley Hall is a weekly timetabled lesson in which pupils from Year 3 (Form One) to Year 7 (100s) participate in a wide range of physical activities that enable them to develop individually and holistically.
All children receive at least one PE lesson per week. The curriculum is designed to enable all the children to swim for half a term, in both the Autumn and Spring Term, and then cover a different physical activity for the other half of the term.
Pupils are constantly observed and assessed visually during every lesson, with weekly effort grades being awarded. Results in Athletics are recorded and compared to National qualifying boundaries to enable the pupils to improve their personal achievements.
