Physical Education
Physical Education is an important part of the curriculum at New Monument and its aims complement and support the teaching and learning policy of the school. A balanced programme is essential to the development of the whole child: intellectual, social, emotional, spiritual and physical. It provides the foundation for a healthy lifestyle and promotes character building, co-operation and self-esteem.
Thrive:
Through six key areas - outdoor adventurous activity, athletics, dance, games, gymnastics and swimming - we teach skills that challenge pupils to develop their health, fitness, wellbeing and sporting performance.
Aspire:
Pupils learn a variety of physical, social and cognitive skills across a range of sports and activities that we believe will motivate them to develop a lifelong positive attitude to health and fitness.
Achieve:
Our philosophy is rooted in developing the whole child and feel that their understanding of an active, healthy lifestyle and embedded physical skills prepare them for future learning and life.
