Physically Active Enrichment – 2021/22

Our commitment to providing positive experiences surrounding physical activity

We believe that as a school we have the capability, motivation and opportunity to increase our offer of physical activity. Our pupil physical health, social and emotional wellbeing is more vital than ever.

Our commitment will ensure that every child in school across KS1 & KS2 are able to access physically active enrichment session every Friday PM. At the start of the week pupils and their teacher will select an Active Enrichment opportunity from our ever growing range of activities. We have been very careful in creating a broad and balanced offer consisting of  alternative activities, traditional and non traditional sports.

Thanks to the support of senior leaders, teaching and support staff we will continue to build on our commitment towards embedding a whole school approach to purposeful and exciting physical activity.

In May last year we were invited to appear on BBC national news as an exemplar school for a piece surrounding the sustainable  impact of the PE and Sports Premium 2020/21. We honoured to share the work of our staff team and particularly excited to showcase the wealth of physically active opportunities in which our pupils can access on a weekly basis. Please see the link below for the piece.
