TME Intermediate Netball Years 5–6 | Ages 9–11 | Upper KS2

Teach the key skills, rules and tactical principles of Netball through seven progressive Years 5–6 lessons.

The scheme develops passing, catching and ready position before focusing on legal landing, footwork and pivoting. Pupils learn to time attacking drives and dodges, mark, intercept and transition, defend the ball from three feet, and shoot, rebound and enter the circle effectively. The programme concludes with Bee Netball 5v5 and assessment.

Detailed lesson plans and visual infographics are supported by curriculum guidance, Know and Show outcomes, vocabulary, equipment, timings, safety, Head–Heart–Hands assessment, AfL, STEP differentiation, SEND and EAL support and metacognitive prompts.

Modified games help pupils understand positional responsibilities without reducing activity. The progression develops accurate technique, movement, communication and tactical decision-making while reinforcing the distinctive rules of netball.
