They should be able to engage in competitive (both against self and against others) and co-operative physical activities, in a range of increasingly challenging situations. Pupils should be taught to: - master basic movements such as running, jumping, throwing, catching, as well as developing balance, agility and co-ordination, and begin to apply these in a range of activities - participate in team games, developing simple tactics for attacking and defending - perform dances using simple movement patterns. ![Enfield Academy of New Waltham](https://files.schudio.com/enfield-academy-of-new-waltham-2/images/logo/Enfield-Logo.png) ### Enfield Academy of New Waltham Enfield Avenue New Waltham NE Lincs DN36 4RB 01472 321434 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/EnfieldAcademyofNewWaltham/) - [X](https://twitter.com/enfield_academy) © Copyright 2026 Enfield Academy of New Waltham School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://enfieldacademy.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
