Physical Education
At BSAK we aim to give the students a world class offering of Physical Education. Students have two lessons per week: Lesson 1 (Core PE)
Development of Physical Fitness, Skills in Isolation, knowledge of Sports Science Lesson 2 (Competitive Sport) - Development of Coaching, Leadership and Performance in a competitive setting.
We adopt a holistic approach to Physical Education, providing students with the knowledge and understanding that will allow them to live a healthy, active lifestyle throughout their adult life. We aim to embed many of the school values within Physical Education lessons such as resilience, integrity and endeavour.
Students will be expected to wear their blue BSAK Physical Education kit for all lessons.
COURSE CONTENT

ASSESSMENTS
All physical activities will be assessed and criteria shared to assist with future development. Students will be encouraged to be part of this assessment process. There will be self and peer assessment opportunities, via video analysis. Students will also have a theoretical examination during term 3 (Exam week). This will allow us to assess their knowledge of Sports Science and the theoretical concepts that underpin sporting performance. Assessment will be focused on five areas: 1. Physical Fitness 2. Core Skills in Isolation 3. Performance in a Competitive setting 4. Coaching & Leadership 5. Knowledge of Sports Science
PHYSICAL EDUCATION

KIT POLICY
At BSAK we have a policy, where all students are expected to bring a kit to every lesson. If they are injured or unwell, they must have a parental note that excuses them from the practical element of the lesson. However, they must still get changed and they will develop their coaching and leadership skills.
SETTING
All lessons are mixed ability classes.
