The comprehensive programmes for reception and KS1 and 2 with the wide variety of practice and Games challenges, provide children, including those with special needs, with rich experiences of co-operation, problem solving, creativity and teamwork. The programmes are designed to enable children to reach KS3 as co-ordinated, balanced individuals fully understanding the benefits of teamwork and sporting behaviour. There is a simple description of the ';families' of games, a breakdown of essential personal skills, a section on inventing rules and creating games, and a table that illustrates clearly the progression and development which is planned into the scheme. The lesson plan material for 4-11 years develops from familiarisation to co-ordination and basic game activities through to progressive skill practices into game specific practices and development. The games include:. Hockey. Soccer. Volleyball. Tennis. Cricket. Rounders. Netball. Basketball. Rugby. The table of contents shows the detailed programme of study for every unit of work in each year and can be copied or adapted as the Games Scheme of Work for a school's PE Policy.
