Real PE
At Clowne Infant and Nursery School, we use Real PE scheme of work to teach Physical Education. Real PE helps support EVERY child to develop the physical literacy, emotional and thinking skills to achieve in PE, Sport and life. It's unique, child centred approach transforms how we teach PE to include, challenge and support EVERY child.
It is fully aligned to the National Curriculum, Ofsted requirements and focuses on the development of agility, balance and coordination, healthy competition and cooperative learning through a unique approach to teaching and learning in PE.
The six Multi-Abilities (Cognitive, Personal, Physical, Health & Wellbeing, Social, Creative) are designed to develop the whole child, focusing on every element and benefit of physical activity and promote success for every child, regardless of existing abilities.

Early Years
The most relevant early years outcomes for PE are taken from the following areas of learning: Physical Development. Teachers use these objectives to meet PE requirements throughout Nursery and Reception. Please see document below.
Key Stage One
Pupils should develop fundamental movement skills, become increasingly competent and confident and access a broad range of opportunities to extend their agility, balance and coordination, individually and with others. They should be able to engage in competitive (both against self and against others) and co-operative physical activities, in a range of increasingly challenging situations.
Pupils should be taught to:
- master basic movements including running, jumping, throwing and catching, as well as developing balance, agility and co-ordination, and begin to apply these in a range of activities
- participate in team games, developing simple tactics for attacking and defending
- perform dances using simple movement patterns.
Keeping Active
Throughout the school day we like to keep active by doing 'wake and shake', active lessons, our daily run and dough disco.
Yoga
In addition to our PE lessons, the children also take part in weekly yoga lessons. Each year group, take it in turn on a termly rota to take part in the yoga sessions. The children love to learn all the new yoga poses.
Teambuilding skills
In January, Bolsover School Sport Partnership came into school and set up different activities for the Year Two children to complete. The aim of the different activities was for the children to work on their team building skills. The children had great fun and worked well together completing the different challenges.
Sports Day
We had great fun doing sports day this year. We competed against other children in our year group doing different races. We did races such as running race, egg and spoon race and a sack race.
Jungle breakout challenge
In the summer, Bolsover School Sport Partnership came into school and set up different challenges for the children to complete. The aim of the different challenges were for the children to work as a team to complete them. They have to follow a trail blindfolded, cross a river, complete a agility course to collect different food and to fill a tube (with holes) with water to retrieve a key. All the children worked well together and had great fun! Check out the photos below.
Sponsored 'Scootathon'
To help some raise money, the whole school took part in a sponsored ‘scootathon’. The children brought in their scooters to school and they had to see how many times they could go round the playground. Children from Nursery through to Year 2 took part. They had lots of fun and raised lots of money for our school and Sheffield Children's Hospital.
