PE Deep Dive Pack

Looking to explore the subject of PE in-depth or hoping to feel more confident about an upcoming PE Deep Dive? Tailored for PE subject leaders, this bundle helps you to consider intent, implementation and impact questions that are specific to Physical Education, allowing you to consider areas of strength and weakness so you can plan for improvement and (if you feel you need to) prepare for Ofsted.

Included in this pack:

1. PE Deep Dive and Subject Evaluation Audit (Primary) - over 100 deep dive questions about physical education (PE) to ask stakeholders, including senior leaders, subject leaders, teachers and pupils. As PE subject leader, you can utilise these to reflect on the current picture of PE in your school and explore specific areas further when listening to staff and pupil voice. Many PE subject leads find it useful to practise them with other leaders to build their own confidence in preparation for a PE Ofsted deep dive.

2. PE Deep Dive and Subject Evaluation Audit (Secondary) - KS3, KS4 and KS5 PE deep dive questions for secondary leaders and PE and sports department heads to consider. While there is crossover with the primary set of deep dive questions, this resource focuses on secondary PE and includes questions about secondary-focused areas, such as the routes available for pupils who wish to take their knowledge of PE into further education, employment or training.

3. PE Subject Knowledge Question Bank - content-specific questions for PE covering KS1, KS2 and KS3. They’re ideal if you’re wanting to explore the finer details of staff members’ PE, sport and swimming subject knowledge.

4. Deep Dive Process Overview - use this to structure your internal deep dive in PE, working through the process of identifying your perceived strengths and weaknesses, observation and questioning, and creating a plan of action.

5. Deep Dive Evidence Exploration - a handy place to collate all your observation notes when conducting a deep dive, including observing PE lessons, asking pupils about their learning in PE and looking through recordings.

Whether you have an Ofsted inspection due or not, conducting an internal deep dive can help you to identify your subject’s strengths and weaknesses. Use it as a collaborative process that can support other staff members to develop and use your findings to report back to SLT, governors or trustees as part of your curriculum quality assurance.
