In Upper Key Stage 2 Gymnastics, children should learn, develop, and refine the key elements required to perform gymnastic sequences.  These elements build on previous learning and include key shapes, balances, movement and travelling, such as jumps, leaps and rolls, and skills needed to work in pairs, small groups and individually. Our Year 5 Gymnastics lessons help children understand, a range of compositional principles and apply them fluently and effectively.

Gymnastics lessons are an essential element to primary school PE.  They can offer endless opportunities, as well as fulfilling National Curriculum requirements of developing balance, agility and coordination, flexibility, strength, technique, and control.  These motor competence components are valuable, and transferable, in all other sports, as well as helping promote children to lead healthy, active lifestyles. Primary School Gymnastics is also great for building confidence, developing social skills, and allowing children to recognise and celebrate their successes.
