At Abbey Hill, our PE and Sport curriculum supports Abbeyhillians to be active, confident and healthy for life. Its purpose is threefold: to develop the ABCs of sport (agility, balance, coordination) and the fundamentals of movement; to provide all pupils with a breadth of sporting experiences; and to nurture positive, lifelong attitudes towards healthy living.

Our curriculum is built around the iMoves materials and is structured into two weekly sessions: one focused on core physical skills and one on sport-specific PE. In Early Years and Key Stage 1, the emphasis is on developing strong fundamentals. In Key Stage 2, pupils continue to develop these skills while also engaging in a wide range of sports through dedicated sport-specific lessons. We also work with a range of external coaches and clubs – including Mansfield Town FC, Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club and Paceball UK – to promote wider participation and routes into local sport.
