Fitness
Year 1

In Key Stage One Fitness, children should continue to develop fundamental movement skills, such as running, jumping, balancing and hopping. Children will also improve physical components such as strength, speed, agility, coordination and stamina, and be able to apply these in a range of activities. Our Year 1 Fitness lesson plans help children negotiate space, explore movements and engage in discussions around the benefits of regular exercise and why eating well is good for you.

Fitness lessons are a vital part of primary school PE.  They can offer endless opportunities, as well as fulfilling National Curriculum requirements of developing balance, agility and coordination.  These fundamental movement skills are crucial for a child’s motor development, and transferable, in all other sports, as well as helping promote children to lead healthy, active lifestyles. Primary School Fitness is also great for building confidence, and physical competence, and ensuring children can sustain being physically active for periods of time.
