Physical Education

At St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, all students study Physical Education.  We believe that an understanding of Physical Education is important for all children, regardless of their age or stage of learning. As well as learning about different skills in each sport/game children also learn how to keep themselves fit and healthy for later life. Our aim is to improve children’s lives through sport and physical activity by:

• Encouraging a healthy and active lifestyle to improve behaviour, concentration and academic success.
• Deliver enjoyable, structured and well-planned activities for all children 
• Provide a safe, enthusiastic and friendly environment in which to learn 
• Monitor and evaluate success and provide feedback in order to improve 

The subject leader for PE is Mrs Corfield supported by Mr Davies from Central Coaching and Sports Academy, who delivers our PE sessions across school.

About us

Central Coaching and Sports Academy are a team of professional, qualified and enthusiastic sports coaches who provide high-quality, progressive and inclusive programmes of sport, dance and gymnastics to schools and communities across the UK. Our ultimate mission is to improve children’s and young adult’s lives through sport and physical activity.

Our extra-curricular activities are accredited with the Birmingham Children’s University , in order to help raise aspirations and self confidence amongst the children who engage in our programmes of sport dance and gymnastics. We give your child the opportunity to participate in a year-round diverse sporting calendar, from football and dodgeball to circus skills and adventure activities!
