“The only one who can tell you ‘you can’t win’ is you and you don’t have to listen.”—Jessica Ennis-Hill 

At Lionwood our aim is to develop a love of sports, exercise, and an understanding of a healthy lifestyle. Through active engagement pupils will develop a kinaesthetic awareness, the knowledge of body basic movements   and an understanding of what it means to live a healthy and active lifestyle. Physical Education is a fantastic opportunity for children to learn and develop skills that are transferable from the sports field to everyday life. Through a varied and exiting curriculum the goal is to spark a love of exercise in our children that they will carry with them into later life. Our goal is to inspire a child that will go on to become a future gold medallist or world cup winning athlete. However, the minimum we aim to achieve is a child who understands the benefits of exercise and the importance of a healthy and balanced lifestyle. Our children benefit from exploring a variety of ways in which we can stay healthy and keep active. We encourage our children to find their way of keeping active. Whether that be football, rugby, running, walking or yoga. We want our children to find their fit.
