Physical Education During year 7 pupils will be introduced to a wide variety of sports and activities. They will begin to learn the necessary skills and techniques, and will learn how to apply them in each of the different activities. They will start to understand what makes an effective performance and how to apply these principles to their own and others' work. They will learn to take the initiative and make decisions for themselves about what to do to improve performance. They will be introduced to the role of ‘performer’ and other roles such as ‘leader’ and ‘official’. The programme of study identifies four areas of activity: dance activities; games activities; gymnastic activities; athletic activities; Pupils at Broughton Hall will cover the following 12 areas of activity in curriculum time each year at KS3. dance activities games activities 1. invasion games 2. striking and fielding games 3. net/wall games gymnastic activities 1. educational gymnastics 2. cheerleading athletic activities Pupils will be assessed on their ability to apply skills in isolation, and also on their ability to apply those skills in competitive and compositional situations. Pupils will be assessed on knowledge and understanding of basic rules and tactics to outwit an opponent. Year 7 pupils will receive 2 PE lessons each week throughout the year, and will have opportunities to attend a wide range of clubs in extra-curricular time including: netball, hockey, dance, football, rounders, athletics, handball, trampolining, etc. Page 14 of 19
Science In Key Stage 3 all students who study Science will learn the key skills of completing practical work safely whilst studying a broad range of topics covering biology, chemistry and physics. Students are set both individual and group tasks on which they are assessed. The tasks vary from giving presentations to the class, to analysing results collected from investigations. Targets for science are set using the teacher assessment levels from their primary schools. Students are formally assessed at the end of every topic (i.e. every 6 weeks). Whilst studying each module students are also asked to complete a Milestone task. Each student can track her progress using a Record of Achievement that is completed at the end of every module. This allows the pupil how much progress they have made during that topic, as well as how much progress they have made so far over the academic year. All assessments are evidenced using the Records of Achievement as well as written feedback on their milestone tasks. Students can expect to receive individual verbal feedback during lessons as well as comments on areas to improve at the end of every topic. Homework is set twice a week. We are currently revising our extra curricular activities for KS3 students Science Year 7 Curriculum and Assessment Information Year 7 Curriculum consists of 5 themed Schemes of work entitled I am Unique Going Global Fizz, Bang, Pop Now and Then The Play’s the Thing All Schemes of work are taken from the National KS3 Programme of Study and are assessed by both End of Unit tests and longer Milestone pieces of work.
