The Physical Education programme aims to give all pupils a varied but balanced range of activities. In Key Stage 3 the emphasis is on movement, team games and the development of skills. In Key Stage 4 there is more emphasis on health-related activities, leisure activities and tactical appreciation.

In Years 7 and 8, pupils follow a programme including team games, gymnastics, dance, swimming, athletics and racket skills. In Year 9, basketball, health and fitness training are added to the programme. In Key Stage 4 pupils are able to choose the activity they wish to pursue with the emphasis placed on self-improvement, fitness and leisure.

An extensive range of activities is offered including aerobics, dance, weight training and circuit training. Pupils can also study for a GCSE qualification in Physical Education or Dance. Pupils also have the opportunity to follow a junior sports leader course.

Our policy is to involve as many pupils as possible in physical activities, regardless of sporting attainment. The ultimate aim is maximum enjoyment leading to full participation and an awareness of the value of leisure and health pursuits. We want pupils to have a good sporting attitude and believe that participation in sport will lead to a lifetime of enjoyment and fulfilment.
