Our high-quality curriculum, delivered by a specialist sports coach and trained class teachers, ensures that pupils have the opportunity to participate, succeed and excel in a broad range of physical activities. All children take part in a minimum of two hours of high-quality PE and sporting activities each week.

A well-balanced programme of sporting activities is provided for the children that includes opportunities for expressive and creative movement through dance, as well as gymnastics, swimming, athletics, games, and outdoor and adventurous pursuits. Learning through co-operative and competitive activities helps to promote an understanding of inter-personal relationships. Children take part in sporting activities within the school, and with other schools, including local and county tournaments and competitions.  Physical Education is enriched through a wide range of well-attended after-school clubs and activities including football, athletics, and rounders. Such opportunities enable pupils to develop personal and social skills as well as preparing them for leisure activities in adult life.
