| curriculum intent |
Physical Education underpins the development of the student as a whole. We all need to lead an active and healthy lifestyle. Exercise is fundamental as it will improve the quality and longevity of life. The aim of the PE department is to teach young people to be lifelong, healthy members of society. This is achieved through regular participation in physical activity and developing an understanding of how to respect themselves, physically, emotionally and socially.
PE lessons will encourage students to develop their self-esteem, confidence, self-discipline and sense of personal morality and spirituality. Students will hold high expectations of themselves and others, developed through abiding and adhering to rules and working collaboratively. Students will use their God given talents and reach the high possible levels of achievement, through the extra-curricular activities offered, which include competitive and recreational opportunities.
