We offer to provide a high-quality, wide and varied physical education curriculum which inspires all pupils regardless of ability to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities.
We provide opportunities to take part in sport and other activities which builds character and help to embed values such as fairness, respect, dignity and courage.
We strive to offer a broad and varied extra-curricular programme which promotes and supports not only their sporting prowess but develops the essential life skills of communication, teamwork and leadership.
