Advice for Parents & Carers

If your child is not physically able to participate actively in the lesson, they are still able to access the lesson taking on other valuable roles such as an official, manager or coach. All these contribute to the learning that occurs in P.E. Our motto: Not Fit still bring kit. 

At Key stage 4 those students opting to study BTEC Level 2 Tech in Sport, each student is given a knowledge organiser with weekly tasks to complete which help prepare them for the following lesson or give opportunities for their learning to be applied to given situations.
