Consult with pupils and parents about physical activity and PE in schools to better understand their wants, needs and barriers to movement
Helpful Resources:
Cultivate an environment that supports intuitive movement
Intuitive movement links mind and body and focuses on how the physical activity makes children feel, it is centred around finding happiness and joy in movement. Each child/person will enjoy different activities, they should be encouraged and supported to find what they enjoy.
Link activity with other lessons to talk about how being physically active is good for mind and body (social, emotional and physical).
