The Physical Education Department are fully aware of the Health and Wellbeing benefits associated with extra curricular sport. As a result we are passionate about offering as many opportunities as possible for our young people to participate in sports clubs and teams. Our three main aims are to:
- Offer a variety of extra curricular clubs at lunchtimes and after school
- Participate in local and national competitions
- Develop links with local sports clubs to create pathways for lifelong participation and to allow for elite performance development
These three key aims will in turn help to improve pupils practical skills as well as their social skills. In addition they will help to combat mental health problems and childhood obesity.
The activities we offer change on a regular basis. This is because we want to run activities that our pupils ask for. We have a strong focus on increasing the number of unique and distinct participants in our clubs. This means that we target groups of inactive pupils in the school and run clubs specifically for them. An excellent example of this is our Integration Centre fitness club. This club is for Integration Centre pupils only and has resulted in a number of inactive pupils becoming active for a variety of different reasons.
Our Sports Clubs are run by:
- Volunteer Staff
- Sports Leaders
- Young Ambassadors
- Active Schools
- Specialist Coaches
Clubs change depending on demand. Up to date timetables are displayed in the PE department and a tannoy announcement is made weekly to inform pupils what clubs are running. The following clubs have all run recently with varying rates of participation.
- Fitness Room
- Netball
- Indoor/Outdoor Football
- Table Tennis
- Basketball
- Boxing
- Gymnastics
- Dance
- Badminton
- Volleyball
Our clubs are well supported by our Active Schools Co-ordinator. If you have any questions or suggestions for our clubs please do not hesitate to contact him at:
