Physical Education

Curriculum Overview

The Physical Education curriculum at Louth Academy aims to provide students with the ability, motivation and confidence to be physically active for a lifetime. Our mission is to prepare students for the challenges that life brings and help guide them into becoming healthier, more active individuals who live longer.

It is our vision for every pupil to succeed and achieve their potential by providing an ambitious and robust curriculum. We strive to inspire our pupils through fun and engaging PE lessons that are enjoyable, challenging and accessible to all. Through our teaching of PE, we will provide opportunities for pupils to develop core values and transferrable life skills such as teamwork, respect and resilience as well as providing them with opportunities to take part in competitive sport.

Through the use of our assessment programme within core PE; Head, Heart and Hands, we aim to develop students' physical abilities but also key life skills that will help develop students as well-rounded individuals, which offers every student within Physical Education to opportunity to succeed

At Key Stage 4, Physical Education offers two qualifications; GCSE PE and BTEC Sport. Discussions with students and parents will take place to ensure that your Son/Daughter will have the opportunity to excel in the qualification that best suits them.
