The National Curriculum states that “pupils should tackle complex and demanding physical activities. They should get involved in a range of activities that develops personal fitness and promotes an active, healthy lifestyle.”
At Sir John Hunt our aims for students are:
• To understand how physical activity benefits health
• To understand how physical activity positively impacts well-being
• To develop confidence from participating and achieving within physical activity
• To experience physiological challenge during intense physical activity
• To acquire theoretical knowledge and apply this to deliberate practice
• To acquire a variety of skills from a variety of sports
• To develop effective and efficient techniques across all disciplines
• To develop and demonstrate fluent movement patterns
• To know when to select the appropriate technique, skill and strategy
• To effectively demonstrate the appropriate technique, skill or strategy
• To apply tactical knowledge and skills to outwit opponents
• To develop mental resilience, thrive in competitive situations
• To be able to lead within a team and work effectively as part of a team
• To be able to analyse the technique in one's own performance and that of others
• To learn to provide accurate feedback to enable the improvement of others
• To understand and apply the rules and regulations of a range of sporting disciplines
At Key Stage 4, as well as 100 minutes of practical PE, students can choose to take a Cambridge National in Sport Studies.
Cambridge Nationals in Sports Studies
Within the Sports Studies qualification, students will develop their own performance and how to effectively lead others, as well as gain knowledge about the national sports context. The qualification has two mandatory units and a choice of optional units. The units followed are:
R051: Contemporary issues in sport
Students explore a range of topical and contemporary issues in sport, such as participation levels and barriers, promoting values and ethical behaviour and how sport contributes to society-beyond simply providing entertainment.
R052: Developing Sports Skills
Students try out a range of sports related skills and techniques, including different practice methods for improving both their own performance and that of others. They develop their knowledge of the use of tactics and strategies in both individual and team sporting activities, as well as their understanding of the rules, enabling them to carry out a number of officiating roles within the activities.
R053: Sports Leadership
Students learn about some of the knowledge, understanding and practical skills required to be an effective sport leader. They put their knowledge into practice by planning and delivering safe and effective sporting activity sessions. At the end of the session, they review their performance.
R054: Sport and the Media
Students explore the relationship between sport and the media:
How sport uses the media to promote itself and how the media uses sport, to expand and maintain uptake of its products. They look at the differences in sports coverage over time, across a range of media outlets and the effect that media has had on public interest and involvement in sport.
Assessment:
Assessment in Sports Studies is based on three units, internally assessed and one external exam. There is a progress tracker which enables teachers to know which learning objectives to re-visit, to enable students to make good progress. Teachers can identify gaps in students’ learning, and, through effective feedback, students can resolve misconceptions and swiftly develop further knowledge and skills.
