There are a range of interventions that teachers can select from such as drama games, Sherbourne Movement, Musical Interaction which are selected linked to the pupils previously assessed skills and knowledge that may be revisited to enable them to retain their prior learning or their next steps.

There are also blocks of planned activities linked to specific skills and knowledge progression that teachers select based on the pupils previously assessed skills and knowledge that may be revisited to enable them to retain their prior learning or their next steps e.g. Road safety, emotions, internet safety and relationships.

PE (KS2)

The key emphasis for pupils in Key Stage Two  PE is on the development and progression of fundamental skills of movement. These include three main areas of:

• Methods of movement
• Balance 
• Object control

 Pupils work on the next steps based on their prior skills and knowledge and also revisit existing skills and

knowledge. The delivery of the above fundamental skills may use a wide range of contexts. The contexts also enable pupils to apply existing skills and knowledge. Pupils may also access the fundamental skills of movement, dependent on their personal and social development, through carefully set up environments to explore, practice and extend their skills and knowledge. This is supported by quality adult interaction and modelling. The below table provides current focus through which fundamental skills of movement may optionally be taught within.

Pupils who have complex physical difficulties will also have strong emphasis in postural management and

 also where agreed implementation of NHS recommended therapy programmes or use of equipment. Time

 may be prioritised within the PE curriculum delivery or may be additional to this. 

 In Key Stage Two pupils will access for a minimum of one term each year aquatic mobility. 

Pupils in KS 2 will usually have a daily leisure session mid-morning and around midday. Implementation of activities is supported by the School Sports Champion through Sports Grant funding. 

Pupil in Key Stage two also have opportunities to access a range of adapted sports dependent on their prior skills and knowledge including their personal and social development.  The sports provide a context for continued practice of the fundamental skills of movement and also to support pupils wider knowledge and vocabulary. It enables identification of activities that may motivate and also support access outside of school to leisure activities now and for long term future. This may include table cricket/cricket, Boccia/New age Kurling, Tennis, Indoor Athletics, Football games and volley ball. All are adapted.
