This Physical Education (PE) programme is tailored for Year 2 pupils with high needs Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). It provides a safe, inclusive, and structured environment where children can develop their physical, social, and communication skills through adapted PE activities.
The curriculum is designed around key areas of physical development including fundamental movement skills, body awareness, coordination, teamwork, and sensory integration. Lessons are carefully planned to be accessible to all, with activities broken down into manageable steps and supported by visual aids, communication systems (such as PECS and Makaton), and personalised adaptations as needed.
