Planning and assessment

Planning

In this section there is help on the three main stages of planning a PE programme – the long-term, medium and short-term plan. Also included are examples of recording sheets used by Dumfries and Galloway Council and ideas for making PE lessons more inclusive.

Assessment

Assessment should be used to support teaching and learning and should not be a burden but a tool to help pupils learn effectively. This section contains downloadable planning and assessment exemplars showing how several sports and activities match up to the attainment targets for physical education 5-14.
