Activemark


Great news - we have received the Activemark for our commitment to Physical Education and Sporting activities. Keeping fit and active is a key objective of school life and this standard means that all pupils take part in P.E. lessons for at least two hours a week. The pupils swimming achievement in distance and water skills is outstanding. We also offer a range of extra curricular clubs including Football, Runfit and High Five. The junior pupils have opportunities to take part in adventurous activities such as canoeing, climbing and abseiling. Children showing particular sporting talent are selected to receive specialist coaching. It is part of our school philosophy to invite specialist teachers or instructors into school for activities such as Dance, Gym and Football to ensure the highest quality of teaching and learning can take place. Everyone is encouraged to find a physical activity that they can really enjoy and pursue. Following a pupil survey P.E. is one of the most enjoyed areas of the curriculum.
