8 Week Vestibular PE Programme – Ages 8 to 9
In Key Stage 2, some children continue to struggle with balance, spatial awareness, and smooth coordination. They may lose posture when running or turning, find it difficult to catch or track moving objects, or feel dizzy during fast movement. These challenges are often linked to a vestibular system that has not yet fully matured, affecting both movement control and attention.
The 8 Week Vestibular PE Programme provides a complete, ready to teach plan that helps 8 to 9 year olds strengthen balance, coordination, and focus through carefully structured movement experiences. The lessons stimulate and stabilise the vestibular system, helping children manage motion with greater control and confidence. Over time, pupils develop steadier balance, better spatial orientation, and improved concentration for both PE and classroom learning.
Ideal for whole class PE, small SEN groups, or enrichment sessions, each lesson follows a consistent three part structure — Activation, Exploration, and Integration — beginning with engaging warm up games, followed by balance and motion challenges, and finishing with calming, grounding activities that reinforce control and focus.
Each lesson is available in two flexible formats:
- 20 minute lessons for short sessions or warm ups
- 40 minute lessons for full curriculum delivery
The PDF download includes 22 progressive games and movement activities across 8 weekly lesson plans, designed to save teachers' planning time and promote measurable improvements in balance and coordination. Every activity includes clear learning goals, teacher guidance, and easy to follow instructions, no specialist PE training required. Whether you are a PE lead, class teacher, or support staff, this resource helps you deliver inclusive, engaging PE that supports confident, balanced, and focused learners.
