PE & Sport

Our goal is simple: to give every child the chance to challenge themselves, discover their talents, and experience the pure joy of being active. Our PE curriculum is designed and tailored to offer the broadest range of opportunities for all children, promoting physical literacy. Through our teaching programme, we aim to develop coordination, agility, balance, speed of movement, stamina, strength, creativity, imagination, leadership, teamwork and an understanding of strategy and tactics in team games. All children receive a minimum of two hours specific PE sessions every week. 

South Camberley was awarded the Gold Active PE mark for our ongoing sports provision.

An Ambitious & Active Curriculum

We are proud of our ambitious, carefully planned PE curriculum that helps every pupil achieve their very best and aim for all children:

  • To develop strong foundations for all children in early years in their fundamental movements, fine and gross motor skills. 
  • For all children to be aware of the benefits of leading a healthy lifestyle (improve physical fitness, boost self-confidence, build resilience and promote a positive mind-set) 
  • For all children to experience competitive sport and learn how to respond to the feelings associated with winning or losing, by showing respect to their competitors 
  • For all children to learn how to evaluate and recognise their own and others' success, comparing performances and applying basic principles of attacking and defending 
  • For all children to be part of an inclusive, enriched, broad and balanced curriculum inspired to engage everyone in a wide range of sports; understanding that we all have unique skills that we can excel at.
  • For all children to be able to swim 25 metres. 

  • Teaching That Fits Every Child: Our teachers adapt lessons in the moment to support every individual. We make sure all children are appropriately challenged, celebrated, and guided to succeed.

  • Expert, Evidence-Informed Lessons: By sharing expertise across our three campuses, our staff use the best, proven teaching methods to deliver high-quality PE.

  • Mastering the Basics: We use regular retrieval practice—revisiting core skills like agility, balance, and coordination—until they become second nature. This gives children the confidence to move on to team sports, dance, and gymnastics.

Building Character & Well-being

Sport at South Camberley is about much more than physical fitness; it is a vital tool for building confidence, teamwork, and emotional well-being.

  • A Place to Belong: We provide a safe, nurturing space where children learn to communicate, build lifelong friendships, and show true sportsmanship.

  • Healthy Habits for Life: Through active lunchtimes, a huge range of after-school clubs, and weekly PE lessons, we connect physical health with great attendance, positive behaviour, and happy minds.

  • Inspiring Leaders: We love boosting pupil well-being. By training our Year 5 and 6 pupils as Sports Ambassadors, and our Year 2s as Playground Leaders, we empower children to inspire their peers.

Inclusive Opportunities for All

Every single child deserves the chance to shine. Our sport provisions are genuinely for everyone and we participate in a vast number of external fixtures. 

  • Removing Barriers: We adapt our lessons so that all children triumph. This includes tailored sports events—like judo and pentathlon.

  • Exciting Experiences (Cultural Capital): We love expanding our pupils' horizons. Recent highlights include visits from Paralympic gold medallists during our Sports Fortnight, specialist coaching from Surrey Cricket and Camberley Rugby, and unforgettable trips to iconic venues like Stamford Bridge and the Kia Oval, and Wembley Stadium. 

The Impact: 

By the time our pupils leave South Camberley, they carry the resilience, teamwork, and leadership skills needed for secondary school and beyond. They leave us with:

  • A determined, "can-do" mindset for tackling new challenges.

  • A strong moral compass rooted in fair play, honesty, and respect.

  • Essential, life-saving swimming and self-rescue skills (including swimming 25 metres).

  • A lifelong love for staying active.
