PE curriculum

At Eastcroft Park we provide a high-quality physical education curriculum designed to inspire all pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities. 

Using part of the PE and Sport Premium the school has invested in the Get Set 4 PE planning scheme.

This curriculum was chosen as it provides opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. We provide our pupils with opportunities to compete in sport and other activities, build character and help to embed values such as fairness, respect and teamwork.
