Sport - Key Stage 1

The Airthrie Sport curriculum at Key Stage 1 inspires all pupils to succeed and excel in physically demanding activities.  It provides opportunities for young children to become physically confident in a way that supports their health and fitness.  Furthermore, sport builds character and embeds values such as fairness and respect.

Pupils are taught and develop basic movement skills, agility, balance and coordination; individually and against others.  They engage in competitive and co-operative physical activity in a range of increasingly challenging situations.

Pupils are taught to:

• Master basic movements including running, jumping, throwing and catching, as well as developing balance, agility and co-ordination, and begin to apply these in a range of activities
• Participate in team games, developing simple tactics for attacking and defending
• Use simple movement patterns
